00:08Tell me, Reggie, how is it you smell it
00:12When you're in love with something so dead you can smell it
00:17Like two hearts preserved in maple syrup
00:21I'm the boy that you love is off dying
00:25And you're out for Asia for something you forgot to ask
00:30It's been seven long, horrible years since you asked
00:35I told them you loved him but not what I meant
00:39It's too much so he dies and he takes message on the scent
00:44You once told me about your happy ever after
00:48Nobody else was singing but you said it with laughter
00:53I'd be right or you'd play with the tongue
00:57We'd both have each other like two summer stars
01:02But I was alone when I moved to New York
01:06And the place that you dreamed of's not there anymore
01:10And all my words seem to be able to do
01:15Is paint all these desperate pictures of you
01:24So you lived out your life how you thought you deserved it
01:29And spend all your nights busy feeling deserted
01:33But your girlfriend, she needs something more than she does
01:38The last key to unlock the boy who never was
01:42But you saw him, grew so well
01:45He was there on the corner
01:47Across from the house and now fits like a morning
01:51Empty of everything, it's like a love
01:56Why torn up drafts of letters, rang down from above
02:00I remember when you told out your happily ever after
02:05Nobody else would say it but you said it with laughter
02:09I'd be right or you'd play your guitar
02:14We'd both have each other like two summer stars
02:18But I was alone when I moved to New York
02:23And the place that you dreamed of's not there anymore
02:27And all my words seem to be able to do
02:32Is paint all these desperate portraits of you
02:38So what is the story you want me to tell?
02:43Will you take off the mask though it wore you so well?
02:48Will you go down this heartbreak town's tragic hero
02:52With me as your psychic, the lovesick, Fierro
