Lyrics
My god as my raincoat
My pockets to fill
My hand's a cadaver
But my feet just won't keep still
I have loved you on empty
Combustion to touch
But love doesn't cut it
Love is cut much too much
Cut too much
Carve a bay for the broken
Things I never said
Hand out candy down there
To the living and the dead
A bluebird has my verdict
Tattooed on his wings
I forgive everyone
I forgive you for everything
Almost everything
Matter-maker
I've been waiting for her
To bury my teeth
In the alkaline earth
Call it a favor
I've been waiting for her
To sing me to sleep
Sleep to death, death to birth
I've been repenting ever since
Pulling clay from holy men
The first time that I tried on
My virtue for size
I was rags in a brazier
On fire and hysterically blind
Now that our little Nero's done
Wiping his mouth on his sleeve
And our work is done, you and me,
We can get out
We can get out
And it just gets more painful
the longer you wait,
What good is a future
When half your bones are fake?
As it just gets more painful
You trivialize the space in between
What we are and what we want them to say about us after we die
I'll still say I love you long after the research is in
I'll still say I love you long after the research is in
