Ruins

The cupboard is bare
I've been watering the fields
That I should be harvesting
Treatments come
I never turn the page
Months are a mistake
It's like 29 days of

Keep my datebook clean
I'm never ready to leave
Keep my calendar clear
I'm not going anywhere

I walk in the stagnant sun
A chemical reaction if there ever was one
I fought the tyrannical sun
I try to forget, but your memory won
I walk among the ruins
I tried to forget but I couldn't do it

The cupboards are bare
I've been hunting things
When I should be gathering
Weekends are a waste
I never leave the grounds
The weekend can break me
It's like 24 hours of

Keep my good days free
Keep my eyes closed please
To everything, everything

I fought the tyrannical sun
I try to forget but your memory won
I fought the tyrannical sun
I try to forget you, but your memory won
I walk among the ruins
I tried to forget but I couldn't do it

I've been seeing the signs of my surrender
I've got it packed up and nobody can send it
I've been seeing the end
I've been seeing the signs of resurrection
I've got it packed up and nobody can send it
I've been seeing the end
Seeing the end

We were giants on a plywood stage
In the evenings I was your household name
And for a little while I knew all the words you'd say

Cut me from the movie
Pull me from the credits
I was just beyond camera
Right outside the frame
Waiting for a getaway car that never came

At the end of the story
I was just beyond camera
Right outside the frame
Waiting for a getaway car that never came
Waiting for a getaway car that never came
Waiting for a getaway car that never came
