Bright Eyes, Britt Daniel - Spent On Rainy Days lyrics

I wish I saved up for rainy days
Cause they're the hardest to be dry
I got no self control
I'm always begging into telephones

And then I
I bought a little from my brother's friend
Yeah well, just to get me by
I don't trust his cut
The effect's never as high as the mark-up

I think I'll print it in the personals
That I'm looking for a match
Someone to light me up
Someone to burn the proof of
The things that I've done

Each day there's hours I skip like a stone
I just crawl in a bag
I wanna live my life like somebody's shadow

I know I'm lazy with the little things
I mean I never held a door
But I still loved you more
Than anyone since or before

You're always saying that I owe you one
Well, let's consolidate this debt
Get on a payment plan
I'll pay you compliments
You can still treat me bad

But now it's, now it's easy getting easier
To leave you and this town behind
I'll do some traveling
Once I'm gone tell all our
Friends you got even

I'm held like an object and then set aside
Oh I'm, I'm back on the shelf
Oh I'm locked in the drawer
And I, I'm mint in the box
But you would still sell me for cost
Wouldn't you?

And I'll be anything the cord of a parachute
And I'll be anything
The blanket on top of you
Oh I'll be anything
The window you are looking through
And I'll be anything the cord of a parachute
Oh I'll be anything the cord of a parachute
The cord of a parachute
