new song. semi-new. refreshed. no name yet. maybe 'need to lie?' here it is:

your favorite brown-head missed you that morning
your absence was warning you were gone for good
the cigarette smoke vanished so quickly
and so will your memory just the way it should

i watch the paint peel off the wall
brush off the memory till there's nothing to recall, and...

there's no need for you to lie
you won't be there to see me cry
i can wipe my own eyes dry
i'll never let you see me cry

so i'm a novelty of the past
you grew tired so fast, it's how the story goes
maybe one day you'll write me a letter
would it make you feel better; would your conscience clear?

i watch the paint peel off the wall
how did i lose you when you were never mine at all? but...

there's no need for you to lie
you won't be there to see me cry
i can wipe my own eyes dry
and you won't be there to see me cry

will you remember the way i smell?
will you cry in november and feel how we felt?
silly me--forgot how easily i'm forgotten

there's no need for you to lie
you won't be there to see me cry
i can wipe my own eyes dry
and you won't be there to see me cry
