Farewell To My Man

Today's the day that I said farewell to my man
Packed up, left half my stuff, I didn't have a plan
But last night I drew The Moon, and this morning I drew Death
I left my lipstick on the shot glass, I didn't waste another breath

I can't say I was never yours
In the pool hall, in the punk bar, in the backseat, yeah of course
You wonder why it's ending, but you don't know why it began
It's eighteen to the state line, and farewell to my man

I loved you in linen, or grimy with bike grease
In tank tops, in blue jeans cut off above the knees
But that hat you wore, oh, it's such a bore, and this is just to say
I'm keeping your leather jacket, it looks better on me anyway

I can't say you were never mine
You were darling when you faltered, when you swaggered you were swine
If there's a pay phone at the rest stop, I'll call you when I can
But it's two bucks to the counter girl, and farewell to my man

I can't say I'll never be back
And I might quit smoking, right after opening a new pack
You gave it everything you had, I took all that I could stand
All my love to you, babe, but farewell to my man

Call up my tattoo guy, I've got some chapters to end
It's sixty minimum to Matty, and farewell to my man
And ain't no one is innocent, I know it like the back of my hand
All my love to you, babe, but farewell to my man
All my love to you, babe, but farewell to my man
