Absentee

Daylight in the east over Thunder Bay, you laugh like you're crazy
Wading through a drowsy communique as I blow smoke off the second floor
Scribble what you'll do, erasing what you'll quit, since you don't leave the house I'm it
You're a jigsaw puzzle but none of the pieces fit

The Fuller house is a place to hide when traffic gets backed up outside
Just close the blinds before they break your heart in two
We block out the sun 'cause it shows too much, there's bottles we've still never touched
Nothing beats having nothing else to do

Talking to the trees, remember what I said, you are kind of amazing
And I still got your voice buzzing in my head as I make the climb up Dorseto Hill
Up to a sleeping street and into 303, want more of you rubbed off on me
So for the summer months I'll just get marked absentee

The Fuller house is a place to hide when traffic gets backed up outside
Just close the blinds before they break your heart in two
We block out the sun 'cause it shows too much, there's bottles we've still never touched
Nothing beats having nothing else to do with you
