lyrics

And I’m older than I’ve ever been before
And I’m colder than the frost upon your front door
And we’re shoulder to shoulder to shoulder…
Oh I should’ve told her!! I told her nothing.

How do lips stick, how does lipstick stick to your lips?

As lights stream ahead, green screen dreams of your bed make me sleepy
The moon was out bright but now it’s out like a light and I’m weepy
You kiss me goodbye, you kiss me on the eye, and I’m temporarily blinded
Your body lies directly under your eyes as I’m constantly reminded
And I’m naked under my dreams and you tear them off me
like bedsheets when you’re sleepless ‘til morning
And you say: “I didn’t call to fight!!!”

So I took all my bones, and made myself a fort in the forest
And there all the trees welcomed me with a river of stones
My feet were so worn that I took them off as I went swimming
And I…swear that I’m growing for better.

And I told her that I’ll never be much more
That I’m older, but my hinges are still sore
And she laughed it off
And the skin was soft
And I sank and though:

“You might be the greatest in everyone”
