- August and Everything After
Just down the street from your hotel, baby I stay at home with my disease And ain't this position familiar, darling Well, all monkeys do what they see Help me stay awake, I'm falling... Down on Virginia and La Loma Where I got friends who'll care for me You got an attitude of everything I ever wanted I got an attitude of need Help me stay awake, I'm falling... Asleep in perfect blue buildings Beside the green apple sea Gonna get me a little oblivion Try to keep myself away from me It's 4:30 A.M. on a Tuesday It doesn't get much worse than this In beds in little rooms in buildings in the middle of these lives which are completely meaningless Help me stay awake, I'm falling... Asleep in perfect blue buildings Beside the green apple sea Gonna get me a little oblivion Try to keep myself away from myself and me I got bones beneath my skin, and mister... There's a skeleton in every man's house Beneath the dust and love and sweat that hangs on everybody There's a dead man trying to get out Please help me stay awake, I'm falling... Asleep in perfect blue buildings Beside the green apple sea Gonna get me a little oblivion baby Try to keep myself away from me
