Vermont Lyrics

They said the aren't surprised

But neither are you or I

I guess that's the worst part

You told me never again

You said goodnight at 10pm

So how did we lose count

Have I said I'm sorry enough times

And if you walk away will you be fine

Cuz I'll be headed downtown

Sponge off of somebody

Get a couple dollars

And I'll wait outside of the package store

Talking like I'm bout to

Get on with somebody

But I won't go inside this time

I just want you to know what's my mind tonight

Well mama looks at my life

Shakes her head and she sighs

It looks like Vermont out here

I look down at my hand

I don't suppose I had a plan

When I picked up this stone

And I can break my bones

But words go right for my soul

They burn down cathedrals

You say I'm dramatic all the time

And I exaggerate but I'll be fine

So I'll be headed downtown

Sponge off of somebody

Get a couple dollars

Then I'm getting a ticket out of here

It's balmy in Bermuda

Heard it's cold in Utah

Guess I'll just have to stay behind

Oh I want you to have what's on my mind tonight

Oh mama looks at my life

Shakes her head and she sighs

It looks like Vermont out here

And you can keep it if you want it

All the things you have to hide

Cuz after all, your going your way, I'll go mine

And I'll forgive but can't forget it

It runs circles in my mind

But you love circles, you cut corners all the time

Oh I'll be headed downtown

Sponge off of somebody

Get a couple boxes

And I'll fill them with letters I wrote for you

Sell them in a tag sale

Shrug it off and inhale

Breathing's a good way to stay alive

It's alright, we already know that we've won life's great prize

So when I look at my life

I can't help it, I smile

It looks like Vermont out here
