There is a middle-aged woman, she's dragging her feet
SOL#m FA#mShe carries baskets of clothes to a laundromat
While the Mexican children kick rocks into the street
SOL#m FA#mAnd they laugh in a language I don't understand
LA MIBut I love them... why do I love them?
MI FA#m
So the neighborhood's dimming, I smoke on the porch
Watch the people as they pass enclosed inside their cars
MI FA#mAnd on their faces just anger or disappointment
SOL#m FA#mI start wishing there was something I could offer them
A consolation... what could I offer them?
And they are sad in their suburbs, robots water the lawn
SOL#m FA#mAnd everything they touch gets dusted spotless
MI FA#mAnd so they start to believe they've not touched anything at all
And the cars in the driveway only multiply
They are lost in their houses, I've heard them sing in the shower
SOL#m FA#mMaking speeches to their sister on the telephone
MI FA#mSaying you come home, you come here, don't stay so far away from me
This weather has me wanting love more tangible
LA MISomething I can hold... it's getting cold
FA#m MI SIm LA
I say hold up our fists to a flame in the sky
FA#m MI SIm LATo block out the light that's reaching for our eyes
'Cause it... 'cause it would blind us, yeah it will blind us
Well I've locked my actions in the grooves of routine
SOL#m FA#mSo I may never be free of this apathy
MI FA#mBut I wait for a letter that's coming to me
She sends me pictures of the ocean in an envelope
So there still is hope, yes, I can be healed
FA#mThere is someone looking for what I've concealed
SOL#mIn my secret drawer, in my pockets deep
You will find the reasons that I can't sleep
LA MIAnd you will still want me... but will you still want me?
LA MIWill you still want me?
FA#m MI SIm LA
Well, I say come for the week, you can sleep in my bed
And pass through my life like a dream through my head
MI LA MIIt will... it will be easy, I'll make it easy
MI FA#m
But all I have for the moment is a song to pass the time
SOL#m FA#mA melody to keep me from worrying
Some simple progression to keep my fingers busy
SOL#m FA#mAnd words that are sure to come back to me
LA MIAnd they'll be laughing... and they'll be laughing
My mediocrity
