lyrics

I've been making friends with the dark
for the past couple nights
spilling my secrets
for some sort of respite

I told him he's the color of your hair
he asks, "how's that make you feel?"
I feel nothing
cause I know you're not real

and all my thoughts are vagabonds
that all end up at you
and I've tried to smoke your smile away
but my heads not listening to a thing I say
I'm feeling, I'm feeling your poison today

I've disrobed nighttime's cape
for a California sun
maybe that bright brilliance
can burn out the poison

but I need a better body
or at least a better high
to keep smiling at these people
who know you better than I

and all my thoughts are vagabonds
that all end up at you
and I've tried to smoke your smile away
but my heads not listening to a thing I say
I'm feeling, I'm feeling your poison today

Now the drinks aren't working anymore
I'm starting to hear your voice on my stereo
No, the drinks aren't working anymore
and I'm starting to hear your voice on my stereo
it's going ooh

I've been making friends with the dark
for the past couple nights
spilling my secrets
for some sort of respite
