It all gets worse when the sun goes down1
I don't want to be alone, and I tell you so, so you come with me2
Chain-link fence rattles as you drag your fingertips across it3
Hot muggy early August weather4
My mom's out of town for a few days5
It's 1 am and I'm not ready to go home6
We're young and we can do what we want7
Sitting at the truck stop, stale coffee and deep conversation8
All you talk about is all the stupid things you and your friends did 9
All I talk about is how great Neutral Milk Hotel is, you don't listen10
On the way home by 3, I drive while you wave your arm out the window11
Back at my house, closed up and dark inside12
In my room you kiss my face, and I tell you I want you to fuck my brains out13
After it is over you go to sleep, I creep out of bed14
On my front poorch I smoke a cigar15
I had hoped this would all be systematic, but here we are, you asleep in my bed, and the sun is coming up.16
