[00:34.22]The yellowed page of the books and books
[00:41.52]I’d forgotten that I had
[00:47.90]These paperbacks they know their age they smell
[00:55.45]of weight and time that’s resting warm
[01:01.81]The opened box beside the endless box
[01:09.05]parade that haunts my house
[01:15.41]Is fit to split with photographs that tell
[01:22.90]the wanderlust of years smashed on to years
[01:27.18]
[01:27.78]When all this actual life played out
[01:31.25]Where the hell on Earth was I?
[01:34.53]I rack my brains but it won’t come
[01:38.43]
[01:41.30]Through water damaged bloodshot eyes
[01:44.85]The fleeting triumphs, brazen lies
[01:48.15]All seem to mingle into one
[01:51.80]
[01:56.87]I read your name under words in your
[02:04.23]elegant hand you probably don’t mean now
[02:10.28]I fold the letter and think of a million
[02:17.88]and one things that I could have done different
[02:22.25]
[02:22.72]When all this actual life played out
[02:25.89]Where the hell on Earth was I?
[02:29.30]I rack my brains but it won’t come
[02:33.15]
[02:36.22]Through water damaged bloodshot eyes
[02:39.68]The fleeting triumphs, brazen lies
[02:43.06]All seem to mingle into one
[02:46.80]
[02:50.07]One gigantic fairy tale
[02:53.31]Of friends I haven’t seen in years
[02:56.88]Drinking ’til the daylight hurts
