Making change from two cents and trying to live with

That the truth is the truth is inconvenient

A black sheep a black dress a red disposition

A lot of truth so either way I'll keep what I'm gleaning

And keep believing...

That I could quit you if I need to

But the cold kills you quicker than the cigarettes do

So stop looking at me in a way that would make your mother worry

And do something that'll make your mother worry

Because I want to want you I just never want to need you

I want to want you I just never want to need you

This chemical is a criminal but I think I'll allow it

Because they find my blood in all of this caffeine

I wonder if she can tell that it means something to me

That her sober thoughts and idle hands are now wandering on me

I could quit you if I need to

But the cold kills you quicker than the cigarettes do

So stop looking at me in a way that would make your mother worry

And do something that'll make your mother worry

Because I want to want you I just never want to need you

I want to want you I just never want to need you

But I guess I'm still deciding what kind of man I am, because I don't know why I came here but I came anyway...

I would never ask you, to put the changes back on

'Cause I would never want to get to know any other version of you

Than the one that's familiar with owing nothing to no one

So dwell where it's warm enough, and if I'm not warm enough

I will quit you if you need me to
