Annie's Always Waiting (For The Next One To Leave)
On the outskirts of the wreckage, Out in the sun under the golden gate, Annie said she was waiting For the next one to leave.
She had a masters degree In disappointment, That's what she said to me, Laughed when she said it, Flat on our backs in the grass Out at chrissy field.
My life's a movie. My whole life's a movie, If movie's made you wanna Jump off of a bridge. She said 'I got one who moves me And one who sees through me. All I really want is a kiss.
Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave But she's right on time for me.
I got the right words From the wrong mouths. Hurricanes crashing hard Like I'm the deep south. Well, it always looked like Dry land out there to me.
She said, my mother, She taught me how to doubt myself. Now, she lives in my head Like it's a tree house. I see her clearer in the mirror More and more each day.
I was only kidding when I said I like a fight. I was only kinda kidding when I said I like a fight. I was kinda kidding when I said I like a fight, But sometimes you gotta start 'em yourself.
