Alcohol

When they started counting down I could not believe that you were fast asleep And I felt like those flashing lights On the ocean floor, at the liquor store It's not the type of secret that you want to keep too long Look for me but I'll be gone Take your love and step it down Spin around the room 'til you have to choose Maybe I'll pick both of them Maybe neither one Maybe Emerson Every time the phone rings it sounds like a song Look for me and I'll be gone You can't sing to save your life Through the alcohol Drinking champagne off the walls It looks like after all They still talk about us like they've got nothing else to do It could have been lines And after all this time They'll still talk about us like we're not even in the room Outside the birds sing Louder than the phone rings Every night you fall asleep with your headphones on Look for me and I'll be gone
