When they came in to find me around noon, still asleep
Surrounded by cassettes of unspoken apologies
And everything that we hated, swore we'd never be
Dragged into the hallway without the will to kick or scream
Remember you said we could disappear if we wanted
Remember I said we should
I watched you driving by the sterile greens of corporate fields
I heard this song arise inside the drones under your wheels
And everything that we hated and refused to see
The slouching broken street lamps were never dead, just asleep
Remember you said we could disappear if we wanted
Remember I said we should
Here's the day they begin me
Here's the day that they end me and politely go
Here's the day they begin me
A warm blooded heart beat within me
Here's the day it broke
Here's the day that I meet you
Here's the day that I leave you waiting alone
But I should have known
And everything that we hated and refused to see
The slouching broken street lamps were never dead, just asleep
