Having Panic About A New World War

I like to drown myself in that river
just to be sure that I was alive
then you have a reason to remember the time
sitting 'round the corner
waiting for me to arrive

I like to drown myself in that river
so wet and so cold, so dirty and old
I like to get drunk before I meet the water
like we did that, too
when we were younger

have I ever told you that I miss having you around?
have I ever told you that I miss having you around?

I like to sleep alone under bridges
just to be sure that I'm still on my own
and I like to lie about having a home
about having you waiting
'cause I know that you're gone

have I ever told you that I miss having you around?
have I ever told you that I miss having you around?
have I ever told you that I miss having you around?

I like to write you a really long letter
about sitting here searching a personal song
about the changes in my life looking for the right sign
but it makes no sense 'cause I know that you're gone
when I'm back home from london town
