[00:39.82]Sitting here in this dirty bar
[00:44.89]Watching the trash go by
[00:48.59]She's selling cigarettes and lollipops
[00:53.82]She's got a sparkle in her black eye
[00:59.15]She says "Maybe my time will come"
[01:05.38]Maybe my time will come
[01:20.70]He said he'd sweep her off her feet
[01:25.19]Defying all of gravity
[01:29.53]Well she'd move any bright city
[01:35.22]To fill this gaping cavity... she says
[01:40.67]I'm a slave in this empty life
[01:45.68]Diggin' my grave I'm his newspaper wife
[02:01.47]Well he must have a very small broom
[02:05.04]As she sits in this very large room
[02:10.83]Maybe it's just a piece of straw
[02:15.12]She says why am I so in awe?
[03:23.65][02:20.94]I'm a slave to this empty life
[03:28.40][02:25.70]Diggin' my grave I'm his newspaper wife
[03:33.48][02:30.82]I'm ashamed of this meaningless life
[03:38.41][02:35.77]Diggin' my grave I'm his newspaper wife
[03:03.65]She sits across from him
[03:05.72]Drinking her coffee
[03:08.41]His face is buried in other people's lives, she says
[03:13.15]"I wonder if he's gonna read forever
[03:17.63]I'm his newspaper wife
[03:46.06]Repeat Chorus
