lyrics

The shameful haul, the ashtray full,
grinning wide, sent the signal.
Required provisions, the tops of heads peaking over.
Room 212, but the boys left.
Cigarette parties, minimal silence.
Just dark the room so they won't hear.

I can't get involved, I'm just here assisting.
Is it all for naught if we're just pretending.
It's like I told the sun, please keep it down.

Can't let you, upset you.
With strangers do as humans you.
Just can't stop crossing longer legs.
The great fall, so small, took a little off the top.
Just a voice at the foot of the stairs.

I can't get involved, I'm just here assisting.
Is it all for naught if we're just pretending.
It's like I told the sun, please keep it down.

When I was falling, I was not on my own.
Can't say it was not deliberate.
Valentine stickers causing fights,
you say you feel alright,
but I know it just sorta rhymes.

I can't get involved, I'm just here assisting.
Is it all for naught if we're just pretending.
It's like I told the sun, please keep it down.
