apartment/appointment

i got a solitary apartment
that's the way i like it, just so
i gotta run to keep my appointment
even though i'd rather not go
i'd rather just stay home

so how come i made a scene at the party?
that's not the way i saw it in my head
now i just need somebody to point me
in the right direction for my bed
i'll just pass out instead

i feel crowded with no-one around
get distracted by the smallest sound

it's an hour till my plane is departing
that's the way i planned it, goodbye
some people find me so disappointing
but that just makes me freeze up inside
sit back and blink my eyes

i gotta go

there's some water dripping down the drain
just get up and turn it off again
