The Basement

The night's not over for a while
So what's the point of you leaving?
A couple more just couldn't hurt
It's the same thing every week
It's just embarassing
And it's hard to ignore the signs

When your attention's placed on someone else
We'll talk for a while, I'm certain
Drowning, but it's not even worth it
It's getting late
I can't stay
I'll see you next weekend

Too tired to act like someone else tonight
It's nearly three in the morning
And don't you ever stop and think
That it's all just meaningless
I can't breathe in the basement

And it's hard to ignore the signs
When your attention's placed on someone else
We'll talk for a while, I'm certain
Drowning, but it's not even worth it
It's getting late

I can't stay
I really want to go home
I really want to go home
(She's walking through the door, and now she's on the floor)
(The only thing we know is you can never go home)
