Another Year

i tried to fall in it again my friends took bets and disappeared they mime their sighing violins i think i'll wait another year i want my chest pressed to your chest my nervous systems interfere ten or eleven months have passed i think i'll wait another year this weather turns my tricks to rust i am a lousy engineer the winter makes things hard enough i think i'll wait another year plus i'm only twenty-six years old my grandma died at eighty-three that's lots of time if i don't smoke i think i'll wait another year i'm not as callous as you think i barely breath when you are near it's not as bad when i don't drink i think i'll wait another year i have my new bill hicks cd i have my friends and my career i'm getting smaller by degrees you said you'd help me disappear but that could take forever i think i'll wait another year it'll be the best year ever i think i'll wait another year can't we just wait together you bring the smokes, i'll bring the beer i think i'll wait another year --- Another Year - Amanda Palmer
