Placeholder

Elliott Smith

Compositor: Não Disponível

looking at all the rows
all these records look like big zeros
got your picture on the back of a forty-five
a placeholder till you take up mine
a placeholder till you take up mine

i'm the person you'll never need
the biggest loser on sixteenth street
the invisible man with the see-through mind
a placeholder till you take up mine
a placeholder till you take up mine

break off of in someone's laughter
you can tell right there
he's still a square
he likes the way that you look now
like an open book

just like my favorite song
some pretty words that didn't last that long
like a package sent priority overnight
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
placeholder come and take up mine
