well.. i tried.. i baked the pies and prepared the feast.. put up some fun new stuff down/right in the fun & games section.. and tried to quell my anxiety about eating the food and all.. but it's always the same.. it's too depressing. we're holiday orphans..
i'll never make it in this world of humans.. i can't connect.. and nothing i've ever done about it has mattered.. certainly nothing lasts..
placeholder/
looking at all the rows
all these records look like big zeros
i got your picture on the back of a 45
a placeholder to take up mine
a placeholder to take up mine
i'm the person you never need
the biggest loser on 16th street
the invisible man with the see through mind
a placeholder to take up mine
a placeholder to take up mine
break off up in someone's loft in midtown
'round there.. next to the square
he likes the way that you look now
like an open book
just like my favorite song
some pretty words that didn't last that long
like a package sent priority overnight
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
taking a fall/
took it like medicine, horrible in a hurry
lots of plans go awry, nothing's wrong,
i won't worry
but i rolled for a dollar on your advice
and i lost you bad 'cause that's
the luck of the dice
taking a fall
you don't know who to call
well, you don't know who, do you?
taking a fall
why do the neighbor's kids have to scream
when they're playing?
you know i never can understand
what you're saying
and you won't hear a word out of me
'cause i know how indifferent someone can be
taking a fall
you don't know who to call
well, you don't know who, do you?
taking a fall
well there's someone to call
but you don't know who, do you?
taking a fall
but you don't know who, do you?
back to the snowcave..
