from Come To Bed, released August 23, 2008
In my dreams my best friend
doesn't recognize my face
when I talk to her/walk next to her
and she acts surprised
that I know her name
but it’s okay
because I know I’ll wake up some time.

In my life my best friend
doesn't have the ability to respond
because it's inanimate.
It's a bottle full of poison
that makes it seem okay
that all my friends don’t even know my name.

In reality, my friends don't give a shit about me
when I'm not offering up my place for a party.
Free booze free bodies free free free,
that's all anyone wants from me and it’s all I’m good for.

In my room, all my things
are scattered on the floor, getting dirty
because I can't handle them
and I couldn’t hope to ever clean them up
but it’s okay
because I know where everything is.

In my head my whole life
is getting mixed up in these stories
I like to read about the girls who win
the book the car the body the man the money
but it’s okay
because I sometimes dream that it is me.

In reality, I know I’m jinxed I’ll never be
the girl who turns her life around and gets lucky.
Free space free rides free free free,
that's all anyone wants from me and it’s all I’m good for.

Daddy said that nothing in this world comes cheap,
and if you give away the milk
they'll think the whole damned cow is free.

In my dreams my ex lovers come to steal my heart away
beat my body and break my head open
and I’m always surprised those nights
when it’s okay and it’s
like it always should’ve been.

In my life my best friends
aren’t really friendly to me anymore
because all they want from me is
listening and compliments and reassurance
which might be okay
but I don’t think they deserve them.

In reality my friends don't give a shit about me
and I hate their petty insecurity.
Free love free advice free free free,
that's all anyone wants from me and it’s all I’m good for.
