Even a child's love needs to be proven?

As he turns off the gas, and runs away from the truth

He seals up the doors with the masking tape

And he closes all the windows and makes sure they stay

With his head in the oven he feels his feet near the floor

Makes a crease on his chest he puts his knee on the door

Is the propane within he's really not sure

Still there's tears in his eyes and the stars on the shore

And I say these things I will never do for you

(even though I want to I want to I want to)

Even though I want to I want to I want to

(everything means nothing, you're screwed)

A little light that shines indoors

(and happy has been long enough to find)

And happy has been long enough to find

There's six fryars outside my front door

She's in her underwear she lays his feet on the floor

On the face is a smile now fallen half off

She turned her head back around she started to cough

She said I think I'm going to puke

And I said I'm sorry I'm sorry is there something I can do

She said I'm the one who's sorry I think I peed on your floor

I said that's okay and then she puked some more

And I say these things I'll never do for you

(even though I screw up from time to time)

Even though I screw up from time to time

(why can't you understand I protest)

The little light that shines in doors

There's a little whiskey on my finger

I toured the place where the body was found

There were beer cans and candybar wrappers laying all over the ground

Don't light that cigarette in here (face the door)

I said I don't care I want to be someone

And I say these things I'll never do for you

(even though I screw up from time to time)

Even though I screw up from time to time

(why can't you understand I protest)

Why can't you understand I protest

There's a little whiskey on my finger
