Untouchable face

Think i´m going for a walk now, i feel a little unsteady i don´t want no one to follow me except maybe you
I could make you happy, you know, if you weren´t already i could do a lot of things and i do
Tell you the truth i prefer the worst of you, too bad you had to have a better half. She´s not really my type but i think you two are forever
And i hate to say it but you´re perfect together
So fuck you and your untouchable face,
fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am i that i should be vying for your touch? who am i?
Bet you can´t even tell me that much
2:30 in the morning, my gas tank will be empty soon
Neon sign on the horizon rubbing elbows with the moon
Safe haven of the sleepless where the deep fryer´s always on, radio is counting down the top 20 country songs
Out on the porch the fly strip is waving like a flag in the wind.
You know i really don´t look forward to seeing you again soon. You look like a photograph of yourself taken from far far away, i won´t know what to do, i won´t know what to say
So fuck you and your untouchable face,
fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am i that i should be vying for your touch? who am i?
Bet you can´t even tell me that much
See you and i´m so perplexed : what was i thinking? what will i think of next? where can i hide?
In the back room there´s a lamp that hangs over the pool table and when the fan is on it swings gently side to side. There´s a changing constellation of balls as we are playing. i see orion and say nothing.
The only thing i can think of saying is
So fuck you and your untouchable face,
fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am i that i should be vying for your touch? who am i?
Bet you can´t even tell me that much
I could make you happy, you know, if you weren´t already i could do a lot of things and i do
Tell you the truth i prefer the worst of you, too bad you had to have a better half. She´s not really my type but i think you two are forever
And i hate to say it but you´re perfect together
So fuck you and your untouchable face,
fuck you for existing in the first place
And who am i that i should be vying for your touch? who am i?
