The Brides Have Hit Glass — текст песни (Guided By Voices)

I don`t come around
Never call or let her know
I got a life of my own
You know I hate to be around her
When she`s like that
I wrote a song once about her
Called The Brides Have Hit Glass
You know it just won`t last
To be on top of your own world
With no guardrails to cling to
You fall so very fast
It`s very odd to find her up again
Staking out expansion
Seeking new exposure

And when she holds out an empty glass
And she comes for a handout
I ask for the same thing-it`s sad
And I hold on so sure I can take all she can
Just to be around her
Just to feel badOne day I will know
That`s it`s a waste of time
And there`s a better road ahead of me
I just don`t know how to make it there
So I`ll just hang around and take my chance
Once again I`ll roll the dice
And try to hang on to my shrinking paradise

And I`ll hold out an empty glass
And I`ll come for a handout
And I`ll ask for the same thing-it`s sad
And I`ll hold on so confident
That`s it all I can give
To try to find my way back
Just to hit glass
