The Only Thing I Know
[Intro]
[Verse 1: John Darnielle]
When you came back from Trenton
All the sparkle was gone
You stood in the shadow
And the curtains were drawn
[Chorus 1]
And I know you're lying
And you know you're lying too
That is just about
The only thing I know about you
[Verse 2]
When you pocketed your eyeshadow
And you picked up the phone
Stepped on the balcony
And drank in the drone
[Chorus 2]
And I know you're leaving
You know you're leaving too
That is just about
The only thing I know about you
[Verse 3]
When you stopped on the sidewalk
And you looked up above you
The warm, wet air came down the shelter
How much do I love you
[Chorus 3]
Well, you know you're dying
And I know you're dying too
That is just about
The only thing I know about you
[Outro]
