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 Keep my daybook 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 Keep my good days free Keep my eyes closed please To everything, everything I fought the tyrannical sun 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 backed up & nobody can send it I've been seeing the end I've been seeing the signs of no direction Got backed up & 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 & For a little while I knew all the words you'd say Coming from the movie Hold me for 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
