Lyrics:

I tried to fall in it again

My friends took bets and disappeared

They mime their sighing violins

I think I'll wait another year

I want my chest pressed to your chest

My nervous systems interfere

Ten or eleven months at best

I think I'll wait another year

This weather turns my tricks to rust

I am a lousy engineer

The winter makes things hard enough

I think I'll wait another year

Plus, I'm only 26 years old

My grandma died at 83

That's lots of time if I don't smoke

I think I'll wait another year

I'm not as callous as you think

I barely breathe when you are near

It's not as bad when I don't drink

I think I'll wait another year

I have my new Bill Hicks CD

I have my friends and my career

I'm getting smaller by degrees

You said you'd help me disappear

But that could take forever

I think I'll wait another year

It'll be the best year ever

I think I'll wait another...

Can't we just wait together?

You bring the smokes, i'll bring the beer

...I think I'll wait another year

Because it tugs on heart strings; I blame social psychology. They're always playing melodic piano songs during sad scenes in movies and tv so now we associate those sounds with sadness. This is a bit of a sad song but it is also tragically beautiful piano! Very good song.
