Oh the party's kicked up a few notches,
look at us getting loose.
She leans back against the wall and she watches, 
tugging her collar like it might be a noose.

And everyone's tied to their thing;
To their past, or their drink, or the date that they bring,
I just get tired all of sudden taking it in.

And I want to lay my head down on you,

Because you're the only solid thing in this room...

room full of changes, strangers, 
Illusion, confusion,
I speak from my heart, but I'm not really sure if it's [bad word] 

And I wanna lay my head down on you.

Oh dont waste too much time planning
Or you'll [bad word] ripped out.
And the only way you'll be satisfied
Is learning to live without.
Some plan for the kingdom of heaven,
And some take their chances and bet lucky sevens,
I don't know what to believe, I just show up and breathe anymore.

And I wanna lay my head down on you.
Because you're the only solid thing in this room.

room full of dressers, professors, 
lookers, hookers,
If I don't get out, I'll do something I don't wanna do.

And I wanna lay my head down on you.

Was it so long ago
That we sat and talked in your car?
Your things were all packed,
And the place you were headed not really that far.
Years later I think
That I would have been much more alive
To have taken you up on your offer, 
and taken that drive...

Well everything [bad word] before us leads us to where we are now.
And thats simple, I know so why can't I let go 
of the feeling that I'm lost somehow?
I'm just a ghost looking in,
Out of my own life, just visiting,
In search of a body to have and to hold and to keep,
and to sleep.

I wanna lay my head down on you.
Because you're the only solid thing in this room...
room full of missed chance, slow dance, cold fate, heartache,
I showed up for a party and saw my life story full view...

And I wanna lay my head down on you.
