Bride of Usher

If all your old posters of co-worker friends

Could know how it feels by now,

Would they act like they don’t have a clue?

You steer with your shoulders and line your eyes with both of your arms

You send out for questions on notecards

When I say the answer’s no, no, I don’t remember the time collecting interest

And no, I don’t remember anyone I haven’t seen for years.

I don’t remember being anywhere but here.

When you come to me with offers I’ll easily refuse

Could never hold me to tryin’

But hey, don’t you think it’s the least you could do?

Maybe it’s better that you are how you are

And it’s something like you that has me falling apart

While I’m pressed into you in the back of your car

With your keys digging into your side.

Reminds you of the time collecting interest.

And no, I don’t remember anyone I haven’t seen for years.

I don’t remember being anywhere but here.
