Dishes by Nathan K. (US) Lyrics

There are places in the city that you've always lived
That you've never been before
And there are pages of your memory that you've always skipped
Like a bill taped to your fridge that you ignore
But it's not gonna get paid now on it's own

And I've got a sink full of dishes that are never clean
'Cause I can't quite seem to set aside the time
And I've got a long list of good friends that I never see
And I'd hate to think I know the reasons why

There are days you can't stop thinking of how awful you can be
And there's times you feel pure as the fallen snow
And there are days that you feel pity for that bum out on the street
But he's better than you'd know
But the past few days have been a little cold

And I've got a sink full of dishes that are never clean
'Cause I can't quite seem to set aside the time
And I've got a long list of good friends that I never see
And I'd hate to think I know the reasons why
