Four Letter Words

i been falling down much like this ever since i learned to use four letter words.
put on hold by the shrinks and it’s all ‘cause i can’t seem to sleep this one off.
and sleeping alone isn’t so bad. it keeps me awake, keeps me talking.
at least i’m still talking.
sleeping with you isn’t so bad. keeps me warm and quiet.
everyone’s yelling. this is the way _ i can wait it out, i can wait it out.
call shotgun. i’ll drive fast and for a long time now.
talking with you isn’t so bad. keeps me preoccupied.
at least i’m still talking.
