37 Hours Lyrics

37 Hours

By now, I should know where you're going
By now I should but I don't
You're better off wherever you are off to
Agile or stoned

By now, I should wake you when I'm hungry
Right now I should but I'm not
We could be a silkworm tightrope
We could but we're not

I don't want this to be over
You're what I do
Every day the only thing
That makes any sense
Your liver twisting logic's
Far and away the smartest thing

I don't know where I am
Plus I don't know when I am
'Cause you insist on using fucked up military time
'Cause you are better off alone

I've been right here for 37 hours

I dropped a cigarette in my shoe
And dove in the water
Then I swam until my hair dreaded
Like flying on fire

That day I quit smoking and swimming
I heard some advice from above
Ducking under cramming it in
Isn't falling in love

I don't want this to be over
You're what I do
Everyday the only thing
That makes any sense
Your lover twister logic
Far and away the smartest thing

I don't know where I am
Plus I don't know when I am
'Cause you insist on using fucked up military time
'Cause you are better off alone

I've been right here for 37 hours

lots of sexuality in this song... the silkworm tightrope, cramming it in isn't falling in love. you're what i do.....

whatever the problem, sex plays a considerable role.

i'm not going to reply directly, just generally state that i disagree. i almost find it silly to assume those things are about sex.
