I am Trying to Break Your Heart

I am an American aquarium drinker I a*sa*sin down the avenue I'm hidin' out in the big city blinkin' What was I thinkin' when I let go of you? Let's forget about the tongue-tied lightnin' Let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers This is not a joke so please stop smilin' What was I thinkin' when I said it didn't hurt? I want to glide through those brown eyes dreamin' Take it from the inside, baby hold on tight You were so right when you said, "I've been drinkin'" What was I thinkin' when we said good night? I wanna hold you in the Bible-black predawn You're quite a quiet domino, bury me now Take off your band-aid 'cause I don't believe in touchdowns What was I thinkin' when we said hello? I'd always thought that if I held you tightly You'd always love me like you did back then Then I fell asleep in the city kept blinkin' What was I thinkin' when I let you back in? I am trying to break your heart I am trying to break your heart But still I'd be lyin' if I said, it wasn't easy I am trying to break your heart Disposable dixie-cup drinkin' I a*sa*sin down the avenue I'm hidin' out in the big city blinkin' What was I thinkin' when I let go of you? Loves you I'm the man who loves you
