Cheap Affairs - Write This Down
Dirty hotel laundry rooms
Old apartments basic views
We are the kings we are the kings
Never sleep and barely eat
We can hardly catch a dream
But it's better than that nine to five
No more cheap affairs
No more sideways stares
When I tell you where I've been last night
No more cryptic notes of when I'll be home
You know you're better off alone
I hate to tell you this over the phone
But there was Portland and Columbus
Now that's twice in a year
Baby I'm a mess and you know I'm out of control
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone
The kind of crazy that makes ya start shaking
Saying things that you'd never say
Maybe I thought we had a shot
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps
And watch the world fall away
700 I owe you's
Holidays and birthdays too
I've missed them all I've missed them all
Failed attempts at rendezvous
This is just a dying cause
But we talked it out and made a truce
No more cheap affairs
No more sideways stares
When I tell you where I've been last night
No more cryptic notes of when I'll be home
You know you're better off alone
I hate to tell you this over the phone
But there was Portland and Columbus
Now that's twice in a year
Baby I'm a mess and you know I'm out of control
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone
The kind of crazy that makes ya start shaking
Saying things that you'd never say
Maybe I thought we had a shot
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps
And watch the world fall away
Judging by the look on your face you don't get it
Like every word i said was abandoned grace
Staring at me like you're amazed my bad habits are holding me up and away from you
Baby I'm a mess and you know I'm out of control
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone
The kind of crazy that makes ya start shaking
Saying things that you'd never say
Maybe I thought we had a shot
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps
And watch the world fall away
