(McKinley & Brian Cutler) |
|
There is no surgery for this. |
|
You won't wake up neatly stitched. |
|
You have to break it off and burn it shut, |
|
half the arrow still in your chest. |
|
When you put your arms around someone else, |
|
it will not curve |
|
but tap at your bone and flirt with your softer parts. |
|
Cupid's shooting with evil, rusty darts. |
|
He doesn't know he's being cruel, |
|
just hunting for sport |
|
leaving us littered like buffalo. |
|
On the prairie I'm down there dying watching clouds. |
|
They look like my dog, my pillow, my teapot, my frown. |
|
Until I'm ready to spin up in a wisp, because I can't |
|
get up and walk away like this. |
|
But if I lay here and collect the clouds back I can make a |
|
heart out of nothing. |
|
A clean steam pump steeping details |
|
having dumped the valves of stone in Cupid's |
|
bloody, pudgy hands I can travel light, travel light. |
|
Cupid's shooting with evil, rusty darts. |
|
He doesn't know he's being cruel, |
|
just hunting for sport |
|
leaving us littered like buffalo |
|
leaving us littered like buffalo, |
|
my teapot my pillow |
|
My God. My God. My God. |
