Contrast And Compare
Bright Eyes
contrast and compare between the busy ones
and the ones that donâ"š¬â"ž¢t care
until there is no one that you really know
so i drift through these days of appointments and promises made
they will all end up broken and quickly replaced.
weeks are slow, days drag on;
even practice and parties seem long
but i found myself going
i guess thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s nothing to do
oh well
group of kids, line of cars,
more will show up after the bars close
thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s this boredom that drowns everything.
bottles break, music plays, conversations competing for space
i look for a corner or a quieter room
thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s no heat in this house
i canâ"š¬â"ž¢t breath with these words in my mouth
but iâ"š¬â"ž¢m not going to say them
yeah, iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve made that mistake before
on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
where you been, is something wrong?
i try to just smile, and say everythingâ"š¬â"ž¢s fine.
