lyrics

I'm moving out of this old basement suite
To a place where I can try to stand again
Though my landlord is livid, I'll still sign a new lease
How bad it tastes to oil your pans in fresh defeat...

Yet here I am, one plate of white rice
Learning how to start again without my pride
A broken couch in the stairway
High with my friends on a Sunday

I'm coming down from the third floor of my dream
Nice to be lucid but the wake-ups can be mean
One year somewhat older, and fewer times that I'm deceived
But I'm shocked to find my truth is well-received

Yet here I am, one plate of white rice
Learning how to start again without my pride
A broken couch in the stairway
High with my friends on a Sunday
Why don't you come on over?
Duty-free Scotch from the border
These nice chairs where we're sitting
Don't mistake them for living
This saga's finally over
This saga's finally over
