the walls are empty tonight
wading through cigarette smoke
drowning in faces
dressed up and watching
try to suck it down
a match to warm a tomb
'cause laughter is cancer
'cause cancer is laughter
lean against a stair
speak another line
then seal it with a smile
sulking in lipstick
take a trip from you
until the shapes dissolve
dropping and forget
‘til time is the aimless
cry into the headlight
lost in the back seat
ambition crawls backwards
on vinyl and sober
generations driving drunk for generations...
