lyrics

I'm addicted to loneliness
There's nothing in my life to cause concern
I'm afflicted by coffee-stained sheets

My body is breaking more every day
There's nothing I wanted to hear you say
I'm afflicted by shades on my bed

Got no prescription to melatonin
My system check failed registration day
No coffee-cup stains taking up my bed

Her hair's summer blonde
And I'm winter; dulled down
I'm pulling up as she's pushing me
Sometimes she compliments my dress

Too bad she's taken
And I'm taken by sheets
With red stains from inkblots and doppler breeze
No manicured nails scratching my broken seams

Got no prescription to melatonin
My heart's on the line and the chopping board
No manicured nails scratching up my bed
