Nowhere you'd rather be than fifteen blocks away   Tonight you're embracing it, tomorrow, who's to say   Deem love unconditional but the real world don't work that way   When we examine it, we don't know what to say   She tells her roommates not, not to take your calls   The severed heads line the bed, their names all burnt in the wall   It's just not cool to act like it's a big deal   She tells her roommates not to take your call   You hear her telling them from the hall   Sloppy kids get drunk and drive their cars   Like Big Wheels, it's no big deal, it's no big deal   We create images to make our lives seem pretty   We stumble through our rooms in search of a life worth living   But what good does image do when we're tired and unforgiving?   The books you've read next to your bed, the words all roll in your mouth   Even if you could say just what you meant do you think you could work it out?   She tells her roommates not to take your call   You hear her telling them from the hall   You hang up slow scared as hell   She's not kidding, this is real   Nowhere you'd rather be than tied to a line to her   Tonight you'll try again, as for tomorrow, you're not sure
