I was sad, I was romantic
I was taking all the drugs in the attic
And you weren't scared
The light was electric
You were saying that love is pedantic
And we were kids
And life was ephemeral
You still laughed at comedy central
Through the wires, through the heat
Through the wires, through the heat
And I can't figure you out
And I can't figure you out
And I can't figure you out
And I was broke, you were Manhattan
Throwing stones on the ferry to Staten
And you're alone, out on the weekends
No-one knows exactly how it could happen
But we were kids
And life's an invention
You still asked your parents your questions
Through the wires, through the heat
Through the wires, through the heat
And I can't figure you out
And I can't figure you out
And I can't figure you out
You're driving past my apartment
I know it's not what you wanted
Broke down, you're fine undercover
Grown up, but I can't figure you out
Sat on the hood of your friend's car
A cigarette hanging off your
Lipstick, your head on my shoulders
So close, but I can't figure you out
You're driving past my apartment
I know it's not what you wanted
Broke down, you're fine undercover
Grown up, but I can't figure you out
Sat on the hood of your friend's car
A cigarette hanging off your
Lipstick, your head on my shoulders
So close, but I can't figure you out
You're driving past my apartment
I know it's not what you wanted
Broke down, you're fine undercover
Grown up, but I can't figure you out
Sat on the hood of your friend's car
A cigarette hanging off your
Lipstick, your head on my shoulders
So close, but I can't figure you out
