The Dismemberment Plan - If I Don't Lyrics
Saphire earings in the one handLong stemmed rose and cash in the otherGot one last kiss on her foreheadWonder what she's going to tell motherOut the window to the alleyJoin the sidewalk crowd and dissapearTake the last train to MarseillesTheres not much more to discussThere's you and me but there's no usSo if you would just get out of the way.I'm not sure where I'm going to goWhat I'll do but this I knowThat if I don't write then I'm OKFrance is grey and needs a showerWaves of fog roll by my window andI could sleep for days on end, butI keep hearing voices that I knowStrange, this train car makes me nervousEven though I've got it to myselfFeels like someone watching meI'm sure people have their talksSay there's no folks anyone(?)But it makes no difference what they sayWe had four whole months of funand you don't cook it when you're doneand if I don't write then I'm okay.Saphire earings in the one handLong stem rose and cash in the otherGot one last kiss on her foreheadWonder what she's going to tell motherOut the window to the alleyJoin the sidewalk crowd and dissapearTake the last train to Marseilles I'm sure people have their talksSay there's no folks anyone(?)But it makes no difference what they sayWe had four whole months of funand you don't cook it when you're doneand if I don't write then I'm okay.Some things just fall apart with timeStop acting like i committed some crimeIf i don't write, then i'm alright,i'm ok I'm ok, i'm ok, i'm ok......
