The Sinker
(words & music by faris nourallah)



you tried your best but still she left
    somehow you never seem to get it right

she went east, you headed west
    in time you thought that you'd forget her face

you're on your own again
    all alone again
    that's the sinker

you'll hit the town and make the rounds
    and drink when no one else is around



you'll get excited when you're dating
    somehow it always seems second best

you're on your own again
    all alone again
   that's the sinker
on your own again
    that's the sinker
all alone again
    that's the sinker
written in march of 1999
