Forget the Words

I'll drink my faith in dollar beer

So i can say I wasn't here

Hope we're drunk enough to cover up the day

We'll watch the singles fight the time

As they try desperately to find

A body warm enough to keep the night alive

There's ancient movies on the wall

And cigarettes for quick withdrawals

We'll break the ice to laugh it all away

And strangers in the tired light

Will share the story of their lives

As we make up a version of our own

Ooooh

What do you say

Forget the words of our day to day oh no

What do you mean

The world will stop as we spin our dreams oh no

We bury green with fingertips

That only keep whatever sticks

Pockets wide believin' more would be the fix

We turn our feeling into stones

Throw them into waves alone

Cast them far away from anywhere we'd know

And boots and heels crowd the floor

Through puddles of the alcohol

And run another round of games they play

The tender makes his nightly call

And chatter in the bathroom stall

Will tell themselves they'll meet another day

Ooooh

What do you say

Forget the words of our day to day oh no

What do you mean

The world will stop as we spin our dreams oh no

Graffiti on a wall of bricks and broken bottles just for kicks

Jokers on the side for every call

They're closing tabs but nothing wrong

To drink or either play along

As we make plans to one day see it all

Ooooh

What do you say

Forget the words of our day to day oh no

What do you mean

The world will stop as we spin our dreams oh no
