Written 2005 at home in Shepherdstown, WV.
Recorded by Dylan Balliett at Will Foreman's bathroom, LHQ, and The Warehouse.
lyrics
My silver friends have tarnished already;
I pawned the gold for solitude
Hoping I could buy them back when
I found myself in a better mood.
I picked up the tab on all your bad jokes
And, with a smile, crawled back into place
But it always looks like you are smiling
When the lips have been burned off your face.
You saw me waving.
