Hanging Off Testo

Testo Hanging Off

I saw your mouth start to move
shape the words I feel you see things that don’t exist
see they never did and never will
like all your friends outside
they’re all alive
where were you
I saw your mouth start to move
shape the words I feel you see things that don’t exist
see they never did and never will
like all the times you said
could count on you
where were you
you were hanging off
over the edge of this shitty town
if it wasn’t hot enough it sure is now
maybe we can dust off the brooms
maybe we can sweep ourselves out
we can lay around doing nothing at all
we can drive around while everyone’s asleep
we can lay around doing nothing at all
we can climb to the roof
bring something to drink
I tried to tell you across the room
I feel just like my dad when I stand like this
military straight with my knees braced
I was someone else for a bit
but you had already jumped from the window
I pictured you falling, tumbling down
I wasn’t sure then and I’m not sure now
that what I see is what everyone sees
