Overboard

I really love it here, and I hope you know that I mean that
My ex-life is but a greeting card, or a sitcom show on the TV set
But your apartment is very "you", and I woke in the wrong room.
I miss the drives we took, and I wonder when I look back
Why you said you could go for a few hours if I want.
When your apartment's so very "you", it seems pointless
Open the doors
Pick up your bags and file through
Settling scores
Settling who I am without you
Because it's over if you say so.
It's such fun to live a life that isn't "yours",
But I went overboard.

You're back from the diner in your corvette, post-singalong
I'm out with your cousin collecting stained-glass head
Like everything we did, another hour vanishes
The poor fortune that you did believe? I thought that you weren't hiding like that!
You're out with a big crew at a restaurant, it's all for you.
I'm riding the bus for some shut-eye, kind of alone for the first time.
You're back from your panic, elbow deep in a pack of cigarettes
I'm a new kind of warmed-up, following voices, chasing a vibe!
Like everything we did, it was innocent, so damn innocent,
So I spent that whole day on the beach.
Eventually, that whole day seemed cast under light, but you'd need a fight back, so fight back!
(babble)
You're out with a big crew at a restaurant, it's all for you.
I'm riding the bus for some shut-eye, kind of alone.
You're out with a big crew at a restaurant, it's all for you.

My Vacation

O, read me the news that was better than you'd thought.
I'll show you the blues, I've been bitten by the bug.
What's this new dream I'm wearing? The old one's gotten snug.
I'm feeling renewed, you know I'm different than before,
But in time I'll lose my immunity, get back to the habits I used to feed.
I'm so tired of all this worrying, so let's leave!
This is my vacation.
Hey! Pressure's on you. Are you ready to present?
I'll try to give you some tooth...I'm not sure that's what you meant.
Of course you've seen me scared before! We both know how THAT went!
Lights on in the room, I'd still yell across the hall.
But in time, I'll sell this as lunacy, get back to the grasp of my old dreams.
I'm so tired of all this worrying, so let's leave!
This is my vacation, so I'll do what I want, do what I want.
Alright?!
