no one is coming to save us Songtext
von Ezra Bell

I like you more when you drink
When you stop your morose and say horrible things
I don′t mind if you snore or you stink
Or the times that I find dresser drawers in the sink

When you knock on my door at a quarter to three
And insist that no words are as important as these
Promise change when I leave you
And realize I no longer need you

You cry and you beg and you lie
And you say solemn oaths that I'll only see through
Now you′re alone in the garden
Where the flowers don't grow, but the weeds do

I like you more when you lie
When you show up past ten in some sort of disguise
Go on and on about wars and the spies
And the kids and the dogs and the soldiers who died


How the government plays us
You talk so fast I don't get to say much
When you stop and you cry with that sickly sad smile
Saying no one is coming to save us
No one is coming to save us

The promise change when she leaves you
And realize that she no longer needs you
And you cry and you beg and you lie
And you say anything that she′ll only see through

Now you′re alone in the garden
Where flowers don't grow, but the weeds do
Now you′re alone in the garden
(Now you're alone)

Oh child when will you learn
Nobody cares how noble your intentions were
Do you remember the first time you called someone sir?
First time you used so profane a term
Now you′re alone in the garden alone
