I'm not a boy
I'm a broke tail light
And I'm coming home late tonight
You try to do it right
Try to do it clean
You're the proud widow of a sad machine

But these days the only kind of medicine that I can afford

And I'm counting every glance I get
If empty clouds can't take you home
Then at least you won't feel more alone
