A Line Allows Progress, A Circle Does Not Lyrics - Every Day And Every Night - Bright Eyes

Sitting around, no work today 

Try pacing to keep awake 

Laying around, no school today 

Just drink until the clock 

Has circled all the way 

It's late afternoon 

As you walk through the rooms 

Of a house that is quiet 

Except for unanswered telephones 

You stand near the sink 

You're mixing a drink 

You think you don't want to pass out 

Where your roommates will find you again 

Stumble around the neighborhood 

Nothing to do 

You're always looking for something 

To sniff, smoke or swallow 

Calling over next door 

To see what they got 

But you would settle for anything 

That would make your brain slow down or stop 

Break this circle of thoughts you chase 

Before they catch back up with you 

And your parents noticed your thinning face 

All the weight you lost 

All the weight you're losing 

You said, "I'm done feeling like a skeleton 

No more sleep walking dead" 

You're gonna to wake from this coma 

You're gonna crawl from this bed you have made 

Stop counting on that camera 

That hangs round your neck 

Because it won't ever remember 

What you choose to forget 

As you try to find some source of light 

Try to name one thing you like 

You used to have such a longer list 

And light you never had to look for it 

But now it's so easy, it's so easy to 

It's so easy, it's so easy to 

Second guess everything you do 

Until all you want is all you want is to 

Finish this half empty glass 

Before the ice all melts away 

This feeling always used to pass 

Seems like it's every day 

Seems like it's every night now
