vacation
its a thursday
and the air smells like old photographs
and long lost memories
of who we were
and who we wanted to be

so i danced on the atmosphere
i dont think i was really there
but it felt nice to be away from here
even if i was right here
just in my own little world

i got doped up last evening
playing with the reality
that i dont particulary like
and i dont seem to remember much
i'm a little fuzzy right now
but i got some tequila and some rum
and i think i'm gonna have a little more fun
and if you like
you can come

because i need a vacation from myself tonite
its getting a little too lonely by my side
i cant talk to myself
and hear myself think
all at once anymore
its getting tough
to be sane
when i dont think i have any left

i'm gonna run
i just dont know where to
happy new year
and a goodnite to you
i need a vacation from myself this time

if i drink my cares away
i might be better today
i wont remember who i am
and i might not know your name
but i am still the same
just a little dizzy in my own way

so snap me up
and hold me down
and if this is what love is
then what am i
doing by myself
