Never Even Told Me Her Name

Lyrics
Suzy was a glad-rag-clad clown run-around

Never even told me her name
The narrator never learned Suzy's name despite their interactions.
But I found it in a half-burnt pin-up Polaroid

Smiling through the wall at her place

Looking at her bed, I sat

Sucking on a cigarette
The narrator wonders why they bothered pursuing Suzy.
Wonder why I bothered to chase
Contemplating the exhaustion of investing time in relationships.
When I'm tired of making time

I'm tired of making time

Suzy tried to call said

It isn't that I don't care

I'm just all wired up

Trying to think of something to say
Struggling to find words or a response to Suzy's communication.
Clinging to a credit card

Waiting for the phone to stop
Awaiting a call, seeking a return to a joyful state.
