Losing a Whole Year

Losing a whole year
Losing a whole year

I remember you and me used to spend the whole goddamned day in bed
Losing a whole year
Hiding in your room we'd lay like dogs
and The phone would ring like a joke that's left unsaid

Rich daddy left you with a parachute
Your voice sounds like money and your face is cute,
But your daddy left you with no love
You touch everything with a velvet glove and,
Now you want to try a life of sin
You want to be down with the down and in,
Always copping my truths
I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used

And now I realize that you never heard
One goddamned word I ever said
Losing a whole year
Losing a whole year

took your stuff and put it in the basement
When I found out what the smile on your face meant
I've seen you pop that check
Craning your neck at the car wreck
and
It always seemed the juice used to flow
In the car, in the kitchen you were good to go
Now we're stuck with the tube
A sink full of dishes and some aqualube

I remember you and me used to spend the whole damned day in bed

Losing a whole year
Losing a whole year

And if it's not the defense then you're on the attack
When you start talking I hear the Prozac,
Convinced you've found your place,
With the pierced cool teens in Cyberspace
When you were yourself there was tasting sweet
It sours into a routine deceit
Well this drama is a bore,
And I don't want to play no more
Losing a whole year

I remember you and me used to spend the whole damned day in bed
Losing a whole year
