Lyrics
Ana Marie came down to me Said she’s looking for a little sympathy She says she’s not been sleeping well And by her big black bags I can clearly tell She says we oughta just go to bed I tell her I ain’t headed there yet How long I’ll be yeah I hardly know Past the morning flicker of the streetlamp glow Oh oh oh that flicker ain’t my finish line Flicker out I’m not even good company I got songs in my head controlling me That’s fine with me says Ana Marie Let me smoke cigarettes while you sing to me I sing as photographs flicker past Phantoms and Phoenix, and marigold masks Tonight we saved each other’s lives Stayin’ wide awake past six o’ five Oh oh oh that flicker ain’t my finish line Flicker out Flicker out
