Longer That I'm Out Here Lyrics - Kevin Devine

The longer that I'm out here the better you sound 

You're scrunching up your face in this picture I found 

And I'm chasing after you, steadily losing ground 

I don't wanna forget so I'm writing it down 

 

Have you ever, no, never, never 

I find that hard to believe 

So let's burn the furniture 

To see how angry a fire could make me 

 

Now you say that there's someone 

That you need to reconnect with 

Some scarecrow from high school 

That you loved but never slept with 

A baby with a pipe dream playing hopscotch 

On your bandages 

 

And I'm singing all his songs while I sleep on your couch 

I'm coughing up a lung but I'm covering my mouth 

And I paint you on the wall, yellow, red, green and brown 

I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out 

 

Are you better, no, never, never 

What does that say about me? 

Now let's break the smoke alarm 

To see how scared locked windows will make me 

 

Now you say there's a stranger 

Staring sideways in a deep freeze 

A loner draped in ivy 

Playing slumlord in his city dream, oh oh 

A faker with an art form pulling magic tricks 

On the weak girls up his sleeve 

 

And I'm choking right along with the words in my throat 

I'm falling back in love with the letter you wrote 

And I think that I was wrong but I guess I don't know 

I figure that I'll wait until you tell me so 

 

The longer that I'm out here the better you sound 

You're scrunching up your face in this picture I found 

And I'm chasing after you, steadily losing ground 

 

I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out 

And the longer that I'm out here 

The longer that I'm out here 

The longer that I'm out here 

The longer that I'm out here the better you sound
