[Verse 1]
I like the new place, I kiss your new face
Still no piano, same guy on bass
You're John and you're Paul, you're George most of all
Stretched out that tattoo, you got so damn tall

[Chorus]
Staying up late in the dark
Drinking your beer at the bar
Spend all your time in your car
Tracing your map of the stars

[Verse 2]
You hate when sun shines, you're tied with red twine
Your car smells like cigarettes all of the time
I don't go to work, I'm covered in dirt
You said it's a good thing we had to get hurt

[Verse 3]
But you're gone for too long, you wrote the date wrong
I sleep on the sofa, you sing your new song
Your friends seem confused, you're black and you're blue
The months gone are many, the memories are few

[Refrain]
Begging for brains in your prayers
Falling asleep on the stairs
Waking up angry and scared
Coughing up sand everywhere
[Bridge]
Walking back home one night
You made a mental note
Never to lose the plot again
But you still try to skip to the end

[Chorus]
Staying up late in the dark
Drinking your beer at the bar
Spend all your time in your car
Tracing your map of the stars
