OVERVIEW

LYRICS

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I know that it is freezing

But I think we have to walk

I keep waving at the taxis

They keep turning their lights off

But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft

Supplies are endless in the evening

By the morning they'll be gone

[Verse 2]

When everything is lonely

I can be my own best friend

I get a coffee and the paper

Have my own conversations

With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection

The mask I polish in the evening

By the morning looks like shit

[Verse 3]

And I know you have a heavy heart

I can feel it when we kiss

So many men stronger than me

Have thrown their backs out trying to lift it

[Verse 4]

But me I'm not a gamble

You can count on me to split

The love I sell you in the evening

By the morning won't exist

[Verse 5]

You're looking skinny like a model

With your eyes all painted black

Just keep going to the bathroom

Always say you'll be right back

[Verse 6]

Well, it takes one to know one kid

I think you got it bad

But what's so easy in the evening

By the morning's such a drag

[Verse 7]

I got a flask inside my pocket

We can share it on the train

And if you promise to stay conscious

I will try and do the same

[Verse 8]

Well we might die from medication

But we sure killed all the pain

But what was normal in the evening

By the morning seems insane

[Verse 9]

And I'm not sure what the trouble was

That started all of this

The reasons all have run away

But the feeling never did

[Verse 10]

It's not something I would recommend

But it is one way to live

'Cause what is simple in the moonlight

By the morning never is

[Verse 11]

It was so simple in the moonlight now it's so complicated

It was so simple in the moonlight

So simple in the moonlight

So simple in the moonlight
