I'm taking the red eye

Over the dateline

A sea of slow walkers

All taking their sweet time

You're on the phone with your brother

Sitting in the bay window

Taxis idling outside

Like pink lawn flamingos

You're planning a party

To bring in the New Year

To clean out the cobwebs

Convince me to move here

Losers remember the people who won

Winners are never afraid to lose

You only think about falling in love

I only think about you

You lived for a summer

In the Silvia Hotel

Chasing paper airplanes

Down the stairwell

Your world was collapsing

You couldn't have stopped it

Your jokes became armor

Your pain became gossip

You were like a coyote

Stuck in a diorama

Born with a silver spoon

And golden handcuffs

Losers remember the people who won

Winners are never afraid to lose

You only think about falling in love

I only think about you

I can be irritating

Quiet and moody

I feel like an orphan

That's all there is to me

Watch you cradle a watermelon

Under your sweatshirt

You had a bad mom

I bet you'll be better

Losers remember the people who won

Winners are never afraid to lose

You only think about falling in love

I only think about you

I only think about you
