Tiny Organisms Lyrics

You had gotten better

At pulling child locks

To all the pills you only used

So you could feel a lot

But sleeping turned to sobbing

And screaming through the wall

At men you thought had robbed me

But who weren’t ever there at all

Deep inside my skull

You pressed your fingers into mine

But I’m not one for psychics

So I gave you all my mind

The mirror came and cut me

Ripped my head clean off my spine

You said it sounded troubling

But more like a waste of time

I know I took a lifeline

But this time I’m going far

It nearly took a lifetime

But I smiled

Before I crashed the car

She swims below my eyebrows

Crawled on through me like disease

But I’m not growing sickly

Just closer to a sleep

Getting up we lean to leave

Run fingers down my keys

She’s tired of conversation

But she’s not tired of me

I know I took a lifeline

But this time I’m going far

It nearly took a lifetime

But I smiled
