Şarkı
I stopped into a club I thought I'd see a show Everyone was there At least everyone I know Their knickers in a knot Their hands up on the heart The best I'd ever seen The greatest book of art I wish that it was me It's bleaker than you think I'm running out of ink Give a guy a break This is what it takes To drive a man to drink A party at a friend's Toronto's coolest scene I thought I'd bring a tape To show them where I'd been And listen for a while The lyrics made them smile They said that it was fine Although it's not the style I said it wasn't me Once upon a time I couldn't get enough Until I made it big And that's when it got rough Disappointed now Perhaps a bit surprised To look them in the face And see it in their eyes They wish it wasn't me It's bleaker than you think I'm running out of ink Give a guy a break This is what it takes To drive a man to drink I used to hold you close You used to tell me things You never told a soul But then you heard me sing The details of your life Condensed into a song The neighbor and his wife Work out and sing along And you can't look at me It's bleaker than you think I'm running out of ink Give a guy a break And this is what it takes To drive a man to drink Could song be an alibi? A lyric replacement for falling in love But now that the well is dry I can't understand What I've been singing of Do you know What it is to love? To really love? To really love? Really love, do I? I cycled by your house I saw you on the lawn I see you all the time And now that you are gone I tried to call your name But something made me stop I call you once a day Until you call the cops And told them it was me I filled a plastic bag With everything I wrote And threw it off a bridge I thought that it would float The water made it sink The bag is bleeding ink I wish that I could swim I wish that I could drink I wish that it was me It's bleaker than you think I'm running out of ink And give a guy a break This is what it takes To drive a man to drink I'm running out of ink And give a guy a break This is what it takes To drive a man to drink To drive a man to drink To drive a man to drink
