Wearing And Tearing
Just as though you could touch a star
But sunset seems to leave you weary alone
And wondering who you are
Don't deny that lonely feeling
That keeps stealing on you from deep down inside
Hey, can't you see that it's no good concealing
A feeling it hurts you to hide
When you can come home to me
Yes, I'm happy to hear what you've got
to say to me, baby, all the way
Girl, you can count on me
Watch those shadows fade away
And brighten your night with my day
Daybreak, sunset hot and cold
Running smiles and tears
Hot Hotter Hottest
30 days is long enough
So baby I won’t call you anymore
I wish you’d rush into my arms
But every wish I wish is bound to do me harm
The phone it rang around half past one
And then I pull the plug out of the wall
The conversations that I have
They don’t amount to nothing
Except for the ugly thoughts I have
The doorbell rang around half past two
And when I walk back inside my day was through
I think I slept all afternoon
And when I woke at night the moon was full
The neon flashing in the streets
And then I walk through town to a lazy beat
I take the phone off of my ears
Cause the music don’t sooth me
It just makes me bleed
I wonder if I’m done with thinking
This prison room will be my grave
But now I’m all alone and drinking
Although I surely lost the taste
In the morning when I woke
I heard a noisy television host
I switch the man out of my room
Cause the games they don’t thrill me
They just make me blue
The window’s open
The curtain flies
I see the ghost of you before my eyes
I shiver as I turn away
I see the phone is waiting
I dial and I pray
