While you were dying I was being born
While you were lying awake on the floor
Your head in your hands and your records on
Over and over that same old song
While you were drinking, I was sinking down low
While you were drinking, I was thinking about being in love
And how that now it's no longer enough
Show me your mind with nothing to hide
Maybe worth living to keep our secrets alive
I saw a man comfort a child, firing sirens on the 4th of July
While you were drinking, I was sinking down low
While you were drinking, I was thinking about being in love
