Lane Ellens - Benny Lyrics

Benny's working down in Indiana
Fighting one's and zeroes all week long
Now you're gone I'm getting all my time back
But the list grows short of who to spend it on
So I've been keeping my eyes fixed on blue light
Combing around for love or plans or both
Cause Benny's working down in Indiana
And nights like these my breath kicks up the ghosts
Punch out my plans like a door
Tae-bo at least I'm working on my core
Been burning through the summer slinging mixed drinks
When the winter comes I'll turn grey all the same
Vacation land all closed up for the snowstorm
Can't offer me the numbness bought by blurry days
So I drag my car eastward up the highway
Cause Benny's back out this way for a night
We laugh and melt the snow down to the river
But as I walk outside it freezes to black ice
Stay low, hug the railing like a vine
Drive slow turn your way and wonder why
Breaks ring, I know you're out of town tonight
Porch swing swears I'm carrying you all the time
So what do I do if it isn't, what do you do if it isn't
What do I do if it isn't, what do you do if it isn't
What do I do if I call you, what do I do if you answer
What do I do when I'm restless and I got no one left to run from
I'm not having fun like I said I would
When I'm having fun like I said I would
Cause it tastes like shit when it's not your mouth
But what's left to trust if I want you now
I want all my friends just down the street
And I want this landlord off of me
I want my voice to feel like it screams
Cause I've got no beef when it's just me
I want everything or anything
Or anything or everything
Or everything or anything at all
I want everything or anything
Or anything or everything
Or everything or anything at all
And you know I'll find
Someone to need
But I'll always long
To be this lonely
