` levi maxwell arlington .
mr. sandman showing his beam, when he walks into the room the walls lean in to listen. surf out blank waves, clicking back and forth like old headlights, sniffing bottled you again. head like a steel trap, wish I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I don't. just want to be a footnote in someone else's happiness. does your husband know the way that the sunshine gleams from your wedding band? does he know the way, does he know the way of the quick lips that would convince me to call it a night? I will never end up like him, behind my back, I already am. keep a calendar, this way you will always know. the last time you came through, oh darling, I know what you're going through. the last time you came through, oh darling, oh darling, oh darling...

LYRIC CREDITS: all fall out boy, bby!
