Head in a Jar

First thing in the morning

Of course, you put on that U.M. sweater

Just like you always do

Tears drip from a faucet

And Dexter play on that television

Just like it always do

You put the volume on the lowest for the neighbors down below

But I'm stuck in place, eyes wide, glued to you

Walk away, outgrow you, then how am I to know you?

I'm the closest here that I've been to you

'Cause you keep my head in a jar

Here on your night stand, I'll spend my life left

With my head in a jar

If it's the shelf or gone, then least I'll be something to you

Mind's a prison, no body, don't got nobody, strictly homebody

I try my best not to trip, but these walls are paper thin

Every now and then, I hear voices in the wind

Wooden floors creak the death of what could've been

Put the volume on the lowest for our neighbors down below

But I'm stuck in place, eyes wide, glued to you

Walk away, outgrow you, then how am I to know you?

I'm the closest here that I've been to you

'Cause you keep my head in a jar

Here on your night stand, I'll spend my life left

With my head in a jar

If it's the shelf or gone, then least I'll be something to you

If it's the shelf or gone, then least I'll be something to you

It's in the way you give someone a real embrace

That puts me in my place, my place

And though goodbye's long overdue, hopelessly I wait

Here in my place, my place
