lyrics

i don’t know why you think it’s all right
to talk to me like that
my best friend right now is this
radio-active cat
i don’t know why you think it’s all right
my best friend right now is this
quiet night

i know it’s a long way down
the distance from your stories
to the ground

and i’m not afraid of what people say
no, i’m not
i’m not afraid

today i had a dream in the afternoon

we talk like strangers and fight
like hateful lovers

we can’t make this work,
we can’t even stand each other

and i’m not afraid to drink it all away
no, i’m not
i’m not afraid

today i had a dream in the afternoon

if you wanna push me away (i feel alone everywhere i go)
why would i stay? (am i telling a story you know?)

today i had a dream in the afternoon (quiet night)
