Get away from me
This isn't gonna be easy
But I don't need you
Believe me
You got a piece of me
But it's just a little piece of me
And I don't need anyone
And these days I feel like I'm fading away
Like sometimes when I hear myself on the radio
Have you seen me lately?
Have you seen me lately?
I was out on the radio starting to change
Somewhere out in America, it's starting to rain
Could you tell me the things you remember about me
And have you seen me lately?
I remember me
And all the little things that make up a memory
Like she said she loved to watch me sleep
Like she said:
"It's the breathing, it's the breathing in and out and in and..."
Have you seen me lately?
I was out on the radio starting to change
Somewhere out in America it's starting to rain
Could you tell me the things you remember about me
And have you seen me lately?
I guess I thought that someone would notice
I guess I thought somebody would say something
If I was missing
Can't you see me?
Come on color me in
Come on color me in
Give me your blue rain
Give me your black sky
Give me your green eyes
Come on give me your white skin
Come on give me your white skin
Come on give me your white skin
I was out on the radio starting to change
Somewhere out in America, it's starting to rain
Could you tell me the things you remember about me
And have you seen me lately?
Have you seen me lately?

-Adam Duritz/Counting Crows

I love the way Adam Duritz writes. This one is my favorite.


Woke up to this morning
Staring at the ceiling
Hoping for deliverance
From the distances in you.
This room feels like an oven
Somewhere south of no where
North of nothing
Barely out of Tuesday
Seen seven hours of Wednesday
And I guess got regrets
Maybe you could leave a light on
Leave a light on for me
Can you see her waiting
There down by the sea
With a hat on,
With her eyes in there looking for me.
If you see me coming home turn me away
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday
Wont you give me the distance
52 weeks later, your still the same
I'm standing in my basement
Making my arrangements
Waiting for the telephone
To ring
To ring
To ring
So I left for Minnesota
Where the weather is getting colder
People are changing
Maybe you could leave a light on
Leave a light on for me
Can you see her
Waiting there down by the sea
& how arrangements made there for welcoming me?
If you see me coming home turn me away
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday
And for all this distance aint going to bring you to me
What's the point of all this patience
Its not your nature
You just keep what you need
And you got some pictures of me
Woke up Wendsday morning
Sometime Wednesday evening
Hoping for a piece of
Something easy to believe
We live out on the border
Of everything and nothing
Theres nothing but waking and dreaming
Barely out of tuesday
Theres no one to receive me
Nothing is changing
Maybe you could leave a light on
Leave a light on for me
