you open the jalousie
wide enough to get away from me
smoke rings in the air
i see them floating away
you're lying through your face again
careening down from love to hate
knowing you've made a mistake
truth and lie evaporate
i'll walk the hall of shame
i've dropped a book anyway
let's see tomorrow then
if you could make it, it'd be so great
i'd just commemorate
this little lie i've rubbed on my face
i tell my friends everyday
that you leave and pay me cold
all the lame stories they've told
seem like lullabies to what i know
i tell you it's all okay
you can leave, i'll pay the cost
i'll get up and eat alone
not like it hasn't happened before
i'll walk the hall of shame
i've dropped a book anyway
