The Lawrence Arms - Like A Record Player

I'm like a record player, I keep going round
With a needle in my arm making someone else's sound
And lately I've been dreaming of blue and empty skies
But nothing like that ever crosses red and weary eyes

I've been traveling with bottles, working close with cans
Sitting up for hours with my best friends in a van
They've been saying there's a limit but I don't know what they mean
Cause I don't think they'll ever be looking out for me
It's the only game that I know how to play

The time, the time, to say goodbye passed us long ago.
And I would say I've overstayed my welcome, but you know
I don't think I'm ever going home

I don't need a doctor, cause anyone can see
That I had all of these shots and I am still sick as I can be
I think I need to rest my eyes, so baby come with me
Lay down here beside me, keep me warm while I sleep

There's trouble on the way, ha, you'd best believe
There always is and will, so sit and have a drink with me
When we go all we got is these days that we made
And I don't wanna waste 'em being wistful or afraid

Without all of you, I'm even lower down
You know what I want to say but I can't get it out

The time, the time, to say goodbye passed us long ago.
And I would say we've overstayed our welcome, but you know
I don't think we're ever going home
