She's Gone

Son of a bitch, the old bait and switch
Got me where I wanted, Now I'm clenching my fists
Should never obey my primal instincts again
It wouldn't be the first time that they led me astray
The consequence of confidence is shaking me down
I liked you so much better when your mother's not in town
And it makes no fucking difference if I bought a bouquet
Wrote a sentimental letter, wouldn't know what to say
Cuz she's gone
I don't know where she went
but she's gone
i've done it again, I took a piss in the wind
Got no other option but go down on a binge
I'd drop her a line if I was more of a man
I'd do a lot more talking but the shit hit the fan
The arrogance of adolescense kicking me down
I liked you so much better when your mother's not in town
And it makes no fucking difference if I bought a bouquet
Wrote a sentimental letter, wouldn't know what to say
Cuz she's gone
and I don't know what I did
but she's gone
I go down the drain
She don't feel my pain
If I go down, If I go down
She goes down with me
Gone

The Air That I Breathe

You're the air that I breathe, The only thing that I need
the more I think of it, You'll probably come back to me
You know I need the abuse, but I'm afraid I might do
stupid things that'll get me in trouble with you
Cuz you're the air that I breathe, the only thing that I need
When you come around You got me begging down on my eyes
If I could have just a taste, I'd do more than just wait
I'd lift you up and hope I never made another mistake
For you, I'm over the moon
I'm running out of my luck
I'm so enchanted by glow and by the way that it cuts
Cuz I often think about you, in your birthday suit
and I often wanna call you but I know
you mess around with fire, in the end you're probably gonna get burned
Cuz you're the one in my dreams, the only thing that I see
When I close my eyes and open them it's still such a tease
You only speak in half truths but I'm naive and I'm stuck
I couldn't tell the difference anyways cuz I'm such a lush
You're the air that I breathe, the only thing that I need
the more I think of it, you're never coming back to me
I know it's hard to accept, unfortunate as it is
I breathe you in and then I wait until it all manifests
For you, I'm over the moon
I'm running out of my luck
I'm so enchanted by glow and by the way that it cuts
And I couldn't quit to save my life
You are such a pretty parasite
that warm summer night, one look in your eye
you asked me to change, you changed your mind
Little old me, the burden, the beast
I'm at such a loss that I'll try to make amends forever
Cuz I often think about you, in your birthday suit
and I often wanna call you but I know
you mess around with fire
in the end, you're probably gonna get burned

Apartment 13 B

Suddenly saw her on Water Street
She lives in apartment 13B
We got to talking
We went for coffee
Like all the other girls
She never keeps her word
Saturday night came and went too quick
I was so happy to ge my kicks
I almost neglected to pay my rent
But the girls and their Madame
They got me spent
I must've forgotten
I shouldn't have bought her
Like all the other girls
She never keeps her word
Like all the other girls

Every time I see you take a fall
I tell you that you're crazy and you know I may be right
It's hard enough to watch you as you crawl
but still I pass no judgment as you're lying on the floor
there's nothing I can tell you you don't already know
Every time I see you take a fall
you tell me that you're better and I wish that you were right
It shouldn't be so tough to make a call
but now we're getting older
It's not like it was before
There's nothing I can tell you
you don't already know
Every time I see you take a fall
I see that nothing's changed and I'm appalled
Every time I see you take a fall
I see that nothing's changed and I'm appalled
