Lyrics Elliott Smith

Elliott Smith

No Name #2

Concrete hands picked up the telephone ring

Do you know who you're talking to?

No, and I don't care who

She whispered quiet terror news

He didn't give a hoot

Said do what you have to do

All she had to do was speak

Mouthpiece to cheek

Please say no more

I'm lying here on the ground

A strip of wet concrete

Her name was just a broken sound

A stutter step you hear when you're falling down

Killing time won't stop this crying

Killing time won't stop this crying

Killing time won't stop this crying

You better start watching what message that you send now

No more situations I only go in to be kicked out

He got knocked down leaving like he ran into a clothesline

And remembered a couple of words that hid a crime

You're just fine

You'll be just fine

But I'm on the other line

Killing time won't stop this crying

Killing time won't stop this crying

Killing time won't stop this crying
