This goes out to P. Just because who knows what would have happen is she was here:

Its the kind of night thats so cold, when you spit
It freezes before it hits the ground
And when a bum asks you for a quarter, you give a dollar
If hes out tonight he must be truly down
And Im searching all the windows for a last minute present
To prove to you that what I said was real,
For something small and frail and plastic, baby,
cause cheap is how I feel

Half moon in the sky tonight, bright enough
To come up with an answer
To the question why is it that every time I see you
My love grows a little stronger
But your memory leaves my stomach churning,
Feeling like a lie about to be revealed,
But Ill horde all this to myself
cause cheap is how I feel

Its not the smell in here that gets to me its the lights
I hate the shadows that they cast,
And the sound of clinking bottles is the one sure thing
Ill always drag with me from my past
I think Ill find a pair of eyes tonight, to fall into
And maybe strike a deal
Your body for my soul, fair swap
`cause cheap is how I feel
