lyrics

you said you hoped that i was well girl
if you only knew the things that bounce around my brain
you said that we should meet up after work
but i just walked back to my house looked out the window at the rain

i'm not the type to leap at opportunity
i'd rather just watch it pass me by

if i had a couple bucks i could buy some cigarettes
or some nice new clothes i'd never wear
if i had a million bucks i'd buy a new identity
burn off my fingerprints and cut off all my hair

im not the type to leap at opportunity
chances come and go or so it seems
i could walk a thousand miles in your eyes
but i'd never get as far as you'd like me to be

so i'll just turn out all the lights
cover every fucking window with a dirty black shade
sit on the floor of my living room
light a hundred ugly matches and wait another day.
