"2:45 AM" lyrics
"2:45 AM"
I'm going out sleepwalking
Where mute memories start talking
The boss that couldn't help but hurt you
And the pretty thing you made desert you
I'm going out like a baby
A naïve, unsatisfiable baby
Grabbing onto whatever's around
For the soaring high or the crushing down
With hidden cracks that don't show
But that constantly just grow
I'm looking for the man that attacked me
While everybody was laughing at me
You beat it in me, that part of you
But I'm gonna split us back in two
Tired of living in a cloud
If you're gonna say shit now, you'll do it out loud
It's 2:45 in the morning
And I'm putting myself on warning
For waking up in an unknown place
With a recollection you've half erased
Looking for somebody's arms
To wave away past harms
I'm walking out on center circle
The both of you can just fade to black
I'm walking out on center circle
Been pushed away and I'll never go back
Thanks to Kristin for adding these lyrics.

I'm here to rest
all they ask is where I've been
knowing I've been West
I'm the family's unowned boy
golden curls of envied hair
pretty girls with faces fair
see the shine...
Dinosaur Jr. - "In A Jar" I'll be grazing by your window
Please come pat me on the head
I just want to find out what you're nice to me for

It's hard...
The Mountain Goats - "Going To Georgia" The most remarkable thing about coming home to you
Is the feeling of being in motion again,
It's the most extraordinary thing in the world.
I have two big hands
And a heart pumping blood

The Dismemberment Plan - "Spider In The Snow" The only thing worse than bad memories
Is no memories at all
From the age of 20 to 22 I had five friends
None of whose names I can recall
