Contrast And Compare

Contrast and compare Between the busy ones And the ones that don't care Until there is no one That you really know So I drift through these days Of appointments and promises made They will all end up broken And quickly replaced Weeks are slow, days drag on Even practice and parties seem long But I found myself going I guess there's nothing to do Oh well Group of kids, line of cars More will show up after the bars close There's this boredom that drowns everything Bottles break, music plays Conversations competing for space I look for a corner or a quieter room There's no heat in this house I can't breath with these words in my mouth But I'm not going to say them Yeah, I've made that mistake before On the stairs, she grabs my arm Says, "Whats up, where you been Is something wrong?" I try to just smile And say, "Everything's fine" --- Contrast and Compare - Bright Eyes
