"Ink Slowly Dries" lyrics

"Ink Slowly Dries"

You drove the car
Through the bridge
Into the water
As you drown
You saved yourself
How typical
There was never a need for somebody else

When you're blind
And dumb again
They'd be nothing to compare yourself too
Sit here beside me and watch as the water turns brown

Where are you now?
You've been running around
Screaming your stories
When you open your mouth
If you wrote me in
Then you wrote me out
It was never a story worthy of writing about

You drove the car
Through the bridge
Into the water
As you drown
You saved yourself
How typical
There was never a need for somebody else

When you're blind
And dumb again
They'd be nothing to compare yourself with
Sit here beside me and watch as the ink runs dry

Where are you now?
You've been running around
Making up stories
As you open your mouth
If you wrote me in
Then you wrote me out
There was never a story, worthy of writing about

Where are you now?
You've been running around
Just sit here beside me and watch as the ink slowly dries
If you wrote me in
Then you wrote me out
There was never a story worthy of writing about

There was me in the middle
Watching it dry
I was caught in the blizzard
There was me in the middle
Watching it dry
I was caught in the blizzard
