Lift me up 'til, I don't know, how did you put it? My false romance of obnoxiousness dressed up as innocence in passing With imitations and sell-outs In a solitary glance see something better when I know So many people here Who would offer their middle finger on a promenade in a comedy between idle thumbs You gave me something to remember, you said Go it alone, Go it alone And I've been goin' it alone All the while Go it alone, Go it alone And as I reach for the binoculars You go for the jugular Didn't anybody see your face Didn't anybody wonder how you Carry the weight of the world inside your mouth And I would never try to get away and I can't think of another reason why It's the way that it is Just stay right there you know I'm coming down So you tell me you have news And then you tell me more bad news And how'd you put it? Oh my god man, Oh it got me sudden Still my credit is no good here Holding plastic chips in an airport pharmacy before a red eye This song written in a pigsty Dedicated to your smile Didn't anybody see your face Didn't anybody wonder how you Carry the weight of the world inside your mouth And I would never try to get away and I can't think of another reason why It's the way that it is Just stay right there you know I'm coming down
