Diner
Outside of Arligton
I'm ten cigarettes deep
You smile and say at least it's getting warm again
I stare blankly into my weak black coffee
Then you're gone then I'm alone again
Just the jukebox and me
They all say I shouldn't spend so much time alone my friends
What do they know about me
The glassware glows like poison
The cancer starts to spread
Render down the disparate pieces
Make an offering to death
Make an offering to death
Pickup truck full of payload
Sitting in the parking lot
Guess I'm all out of cigarettes
Guess it's time I stepped off
I know you're somewhere doing something
I guess you're pitying me
But when it all comes down to nothing
I'll be the only one laughing
The glassware glows like poison
The cancer starts to spread
Render down the disparate pieces
Make an offering to death
Make an offering to death
Starch my stole with egg whites
Prepare the sacrificial rite
Walk out of the gas station
Blowing fresh poison to the night
Blowing fresh poison to the night
