Edison Arcade - Go Home Empty Lyrics

I stayed up to wait for you all night I needed to know you were alright
And how is it you always call right after I've fallen to pieces and stumbled around

You disappear with no warning I wake up alone in the morning
And you know that I hate performing all of these people are watching me standing around

Then I turn and wink at the crowd now oh wait did I just say that out loud
I'm way too impatient to shout down every tunnel that leads away from here

I know I'm no prince charming and you find that quite alarming
You're humming Lover's Carvings and promising that this will make it clear

I'm not sure if I'm dreaming cause you still can't hear me screaming
So I just say that I'm leaving all of this behind and moving on

I'll see you on the weekends and we'll pretend we can be friends
Will I pass out in the deep end all I know is I've been proven wrong

When you get home tomorrow broken battered and borrowed simply scatter the sorrow of it all
And don't stop talking long

You ripped all of your teeth out and I tried my best not to freak out
Kicked my feet to the beat down every street I grew up walking on

And at the corner of Metro and Edison there's a stoplight that won't ever let us in
Cause it don't know that we need our medicine and we go home empty
