lyrics

Spent a decade drinking at a thinking place
I was keeping up with Lou, at a younger man’s pace
Figured I’d bend never thought I’d break
These choices I made, oh, they keep me awake

Stalking the bars at closing time
I was cold calling a hookup with desperate eyes
Felt like the blind calling out to the blind
Trying to find a connection

And every day I’m running with knives
And every night I’m baking poison pies

Spent a decade drinking at this thinking place
Now I can’t keep up, stumbling out of the gates
I’m an educated man, man, I’ve got a master’s degree
Did a semester abroad on the Aegean Sea

But after the after party
I always feel lost and vaguely sorry
Everything rounded, sullied and slurred
Everything outlined, abstracted and blurred

And every day I’m running with knives
And every night I’m baking poison pies
