in an old school diner
catching something diviner
the waitress serves the wrong thing
in an old school diner
a man chokes on his ice cream
coughs up a lung and spits out sunshine
i'm just watching from beneath the lampshade
wondering who played the ace of spades
wondering who caved and who would be saved
and walking back to my lonely apartment
the street lights flicker but i don't notice and
well the floor is nice and the carpet's all right
and i think i'll lie here alone all night
strange and bitter comes to inhibit
the only sense of comfort left
what have we become
"i delicately picked my sins and learned to love them"
my body is wasteland
