One Time Thing

THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT · Dope Machines 2015 · Track 02 of 10

Written by Mikel Jollett

When I woke up today I got your message on my phone You said I had fun Did you ever make it home? I tried to read between the lines Oh yeah, I'm doing fine

Feels like my head is made of moonshine And cheap-ass wine My best friend told me I should just stop looking for a sign Babe

So okay You told me it was just a one time thing A spark on gasoline So what could I say? If you tell me it don't mean a thing, yeah Somebody told me you were mean

Then in a couple of days I get this photograph of you The message says you're lonely too Do you wanna tell me what to do? I thought maybe it was a line When we spoke that one last time

Sounds like your breath is full of moonshine And cheap-ass wine My best friend told me I should just stop looking for a sign Babe

So okay You told me it was just a one time thing A spark on gasoline So what could I say? If you tell me it don't mean a thing, yeah Somebody told me you were like a machine And so damn mean My mind's falling to pieces every time I try to jump up On this trampoline

Why don't you tell me what you mean? Why don't you tell me what you mean? Why won't you tell me I was just your mistake? How long can this take? How many sleepless nights can I go over every second While I'm lying awake? Babe

So okay If this is really just a one time thing I think I've lost something What else can I say? I don't blame you for a single thing, yeah Somebody told me I should stay away But I can't help it I want one more thing Silence is deafening I can't put you away And I don't blame you for a single thing, yeah Somebody told me you were mean
