Rainbow City Park - Chalk Lyrics

How many miles till El Paso?
You'll see me when I get home
Out of smoke-filled rooms playing Devo
Twenty-three months of flattery
With moments that could fill galleries
Imagine none of that mattering
You knew the ending before I could even guess
'Cause what I wanted was so much more than I would ever get
Believed it was something that it wasn't
Oh does it make you sick to your stomach?
Or do you chalk it up to nothing?
These walls can talk
They told me they've seen enough
Have in one's hand, the weight of it all
Slow to rise, quick to fall
So much lost, mostly my pride
I waited so long for you to say it felt right
It brought me to a breaking point
I have lost all my poise
You knew the ending before I could even guess
'Cause what I wanted was so much more than I would ever get
Believed it was something that it wasn't
Oh does it make you sick to your stomach?
Or do you chalk it up to nothing?
I'm making this my end-all be-all
'Cause when did we decide to withdraw?
At least you taught me something that is worth it
He who hesitates gets deserted
You knew the ending before I could even guess
'Cause what I wanted was so much more than I would ever get
Believed it was something that it wasn't
Oh does it make you sick to your stomach?
Or do you chalk it up to nothing?
These walls can talk
They told me they've seen enough
"This is a crisis averted"
I guess we were never aligned
Something tense every night
He who hesitates gets deserted
