Tonight I'll stay awake long enough to stop breathing 
and I wonder how long it will take before I pass out drunk off night skies 
and lying on hills with wet grass below and blue black above- 
I will carry all the weights tonight 
'cause I keep remembering the day that you said you might go crazy 
if you spent one more minute with me and I just don't know- 
is one more minute going to kill you now? 
Stop before I say too much- 
so now I've been alone and it's been going but tomorrow might not come 
if I don't let it so don't forget the mornings that we spent deep inside out heads 
staring at blank walls 'cause that's what counts 
and I don't know but I'm trying to let you go 
but I can't cut so well these strings I have around my neck 
and I'm trying to let you know that I'm doing this by myself- 
so don't forget we sent letters to ourselves without words 
and it was just to remember those days that we spent in our heads.
