lyrics

you fastened half a sinking ship around your ankle with twine
you said they do it in lafayette and in jersey city too
but I’m able and alive
could I die in massachusetts with you?
I had a dream I singed off all of my hair
your body moved as if to console me
your eyes were black and your arms were around me
your mouth, it formed a shape
your lungs were triggered late
and your lips, they moved for quite some time
before your words were conveyed
never heard the artillery fire
the sound of traffic had lulled us both to sleep
and all the walls will be repainted and the sidewalks cleaned
by the time we’re awake and back on our feet
you really are an obsessive bastard and you know it
one day we’ll burn all of these lies on your skin
and we’ll bill you for it
