Hotel Seventeen

So the day comes out too fast

And the night won't fall undone

Better stay right where you're at

I know what you wanna do



Well you tell me you're okay

But you look so far away

And I should have more to say

Knowing you like I do



So now you only want me

When I tell you what to do

I did not leave a message because

I'm never getting through at Hotel 17



So a word locks up your face

And a look sends you back in

How'd you ever find this place?

What are you gonna do?



Well, you tell me you've been missed

And you never planned for this

Empty out your promises

Get out before you're through



So now you only call me

When you know you can't be seen

Underneath your blanket

With a loaded magazine at Hotel 17
