lyrics

When you walk on down the street
Do you stare at every person you see
Do you wish you were any of them
You already how this story ends
Not with a miracle, but a fade-out

If you lived all by yourself
In a quiet clean apartment
Would you sit wishing anyone at all
Would knock on your door and just lay down and talk

If i had to guess, I don't think so
Cause living alone is really peaceful
Life is a bible that's always switching translations
And up to my interpretation

...

Sleeping in the yard
Loving from afar
We are
Across the room in separate beds
Alone together, not quite friends
But I lay awake and whisper this out loud

Do you hear what they're saying about those temporary problems
Do you mean what they mean when they talk permanent solutions
Are you just like me
Darling you'd better be
I'm nothing without you
Nothing, nothing at all

Sleeping in the yard
Loving from afar

Corinthian love is a murder-suicide
I've been patient with you, but I can only be so kind
Corinthian love is a murder-suicide
I've been patient with you, but I can only be so kind

if i had to guess, you're happy now
There with your friends and your family
How do the pills taste? They taste fine,
But I wish you wouldn't ask me things like that.
How is your mother, does she call?
For all I know, she's dead in the ground.

I don't want to say it out loud
I feel trapped, I feel like there's no way out

Corinthian love is a murder-suicide
I've been patient with you, but I can only be so kind
I did it all for love
I did it with the hope that you'd forgive me
Tears roll down my face for the thousandth, final time

Sleeping in the yard
Loving from afar
Waiting for you to fall apart

...

When you die all by yourself
And you drown in the bathtub
And I'm not there to hold your hand
Think not where you're going, think not where you've been

..

Call it what you want, but you are hanging by a thread
If I'm wrong then may you find the strength to hold your breath
