Don't lay it on me, on me
Don't you leave me here

I like to sit and cry in front of my TV
I like to think of words to scream
About all it is I am
And all it is I wanna be

Over and over 
I laugh and cry
But the movie 
It ain't as real
As I want it to be

I like to sit and cry 
Over and over again
And the tears they please me
They are all I need to know
As I zap from show to show

And a man on a bike comes on
He says: "Hey my wheels don't turn
If the road don't feel right"
I say: "I'll just stand still and wait
For the skies to burn at night"

So I can bury you
It's all I can do
So you won't come through
At least for a little while
My life will be alright

I like to sit 
And watch it all I can
Crying like a man
And leave it for another day
I'll stay here in my precious cage
And lose it while I can
Cut if off by minute roots
And stick it in the ground

And bury you, 
it's all I can do
So you won't come through
At least for a little while
My life will be alright

You see, I been waiting
Here in doubt
But I don't fear your lightshows
And I don't fear your eyes
Not anymore
Everytime we score

I like to sit and cry
And on that score
I think I'll cry a little more
I think I'll keep the TV on
I think I'll cry for all night long
I'm sure that it won't do me no good
No, but it will
Shake you off of me momma
And cut you loose from me girl

It means the world to bury you
It's all I can do
So you won't come through
At least for a little while
My life will be alright
