Alison Lyrics

[00:21.53] Listen close and don't be stoned
[00:26.95] I'll be here in the morning
[00:33.00] 'Cause I'm just floating
[00:37.44]
[00:41.42] Your cigarette still burns
[00:46.52] Your messed up world will thrill me
[00:52.75] Alison, I'm lost
[00:59.92] Alison, I said, "We're sinking"
[01:06.83]
[01:09.16] There's nothing here, but that's okay
[01:18.50] Outside your room, your sister's spinning
[01:26.49] But she laughs, tells me she's just fine
[01:33.95] I guess she's out there somewhere
[01:39.63]
[01:47.68] And the sailors, they strike poses
[01:53.09] TV covered walls, and so slowly
[02:03.79]
[02:06.85] With your talking and your pills
[02:11.64] Your messed up life still thrills me
[02:18.44] Alison, I'm lost
[02:23.42]
[02:25.44] Alison, I'll drink your wine
[02:31.72]
[02:34.54] And wear your clothes when we're both high
[02:44.28] "Alison", I said, "We're sinking"
[02:51.64] But she laughs and tells me it's just fine
[02:59.21] I guess she's out there somewhere
[03:02.73]
