...But I`m Dying — текст песни (Admiral Twin)

I`m tired of living in your constellation
Most of your friends, they still don`t know my name
I`ve never been good at orbiting
And everything you say is Greek to me
So why don`t I blow the lid off this can of worms?
I think there might be a prize at the bottom
It`s a Cracker Jack deal
I`ll be free and you`ll be rid of me
Everything`s gold on the surface of the moment
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
And when my day comes crashing down
At 3 a.m., without a sound
You`re fast asleep...but I`m dying.

You`re making me laugh
But I don`t want to laugh anymore
People laugh when they don`t really know the score
And laughing is just one step away
From crying...and I don`t want to do that today
A bit of a piece of a fragment of you is enough
I can file it away with the last six months
In a tattered envelope
Stuck away in a book that I never read
Everything`s gold on the surface of the moment
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
And when my day comes crashing down
At 3 a.m., without a sound
You`re fast asleep...but I`m dying.

I had a dream last night `bout an angel
She was laughing at me, but so sweetly
Then she kicked me out the door
I fell out of bed and now my ribs are sore
Everything`s gold on the surface of the moment
But I take my coffee much blacker than you ever will
And when my day comes crashing down
At 3 a.m., without a sound
You`re fast asleep, but I`m dying
You`re doing fine, but I`m dying.
