She wakes up, puts a little makeup on/
I'm waiting outside, hope it doesn't take a long time/
Cuz I'm trying to roll while the night is young/
But I bite my tongue because of what might come/
We might run till the sunrise, kiss the butterflies/
Lips locked, tongues tied/
Two tickets inside of the glove box in my ride/
She walks outside and I'm tongue tied/
Last week she made me mushroom tea/
Started touching me, not giving me much room to breathe/
At ease baby girl, you're looking like a toy/
Could you please light a candle and put on some Pink Floyd/
I can't handle your noise right now, killing my vibe/
I want to climb inside of my own damn mind/
And for the time being feel like I'm seeing a reason/
To please the part of my being that feels deep as the Aegean Sea/
Boston's about to freeze, walking through the autumn leaves/
Stop and smell the Peonies, maybe eat a few of these/
It's you and me, and we're one in the same/
Toxins in the brain add oxygen to the flame because...
HOOK:
Soon it will be cold enough to build fires/
Living in the city and we never see stars/
Yeah we've got a tendency to take it too far/
But I don't want to call it a night quite yet/
Soon it will be cold enough to build fires/
Grew up in the city and we never saw stars/
Yeah we've got a tendency to take it too far/
But I don't want to call it a night quite yet/

The first time I saw her sitting at barstool/
Peeling the label off of a bottle of harpoon/
Our soon to be tune was playing through the juke box/
Got a panoramic view of her bandana tube top/
Biker boots complimented her daisy dukes/
Whiskey on the rocks like she trying to get loose/
Dawning a disguise like the rest of the bar files/
All starry eyed and escaping the hard time/
So I slid into the seat beside her/
Living to die, I thought I'd give it a try/
I said, "It's only getting colder, drinking until we're sober/
A quarter of the way through life and getting older/
I want to move boulders girl," That's what I told her/
And then she said with a shrug of her shoulder/
"You're popping tags on your clothes while there's tags on the toes/
Of a thousand people froze in the city Winter cold/
Reaching into your bag of lies; hand out all your alibis/
Hitting on women and then you trick them when the cab arrives/
What kind of girl do you take me for?"/
She gave me a cigarette and we headed for the door singing...

This is what living looks like, 2 am an night/
Sipping a natty light, gripping on a fatty type booty/
And I'm feeling like of moody from the come down/
Chasing the sun round the planet till we're dumbfounded/
Did we grow up to become dumb kids/
Did we get the notice the vote is to numb our lids/
Kids looking like they just got back from Bisco/
Pretending that they live in the 60's in San Francisco/
Moon rocks got him talking a hell of a lot/
Somebody sell him some pot, don't want to listen to that/
Jibber-jabber so I tell him I'll be back soon/
Cats in gas masks get blasted in the back room/
All of the noise right now killing my vibe/
I want to climb inside of my own damn mind/
And for the time being feel like I'm finally breathing/
Freeing the part of my being that feels deep as the Aegean Sea/
Boston's about to freeze, walking through the autumn leaves/
Stop and smell the Peonies, maybe eat a few of these/
It's you and me, and we're one in the same/
Toxins in the brain add oxygen to the flame because...
