I was loud enough to start with
You were quiet enough to say
I might bring you down but I sure don't make it rain
But if I ain’t got time to sing it
Then I ain’t got time at all
I hit the floor, come on give me more, give me more
You kept on asking me for the money
I kept on picking up your signs
I left myself all but nothing but a single rhyme
I can’t wait for this to happen
I can’t wait I’ve gotta run
It was fun, we were very young but I’ve gotta run
Now I’m hiding down some alley
Holding hands with nothing but the sound
Of the giant billboards laughing
So, I made my way to the station under ground
But you’re not around
You’re not around
Two weeks ago I met you
On the red-wheeled 260
Little did I know you were charging for my time
She said, “Why are you so serious?”
“Why are you so blind?”
Wasting time, I’m doing fine, I think you’re right
Can’t even get up in the morning
You’re not in love enough to blush
You got a ticket for this ride, don’t fuck it up
So, if we’re gonna end this story
Then I’m gonna break this down
Coming round, coming round, I’m coming round
Now I’m hiding down some alley
Holding hands with nothing but the sound
Yeah, of the giant billboards laughing
So, I made my way to the station under ground
But you’re not around
You’re not around
