Don't go to bed if you know that something's waiting |
|
to grab you in the night and throttle hope from your heart. |
|
Don't close your eyes if the ills are fornicating |
|
and conceiving of an evil to break you from the start. |
|
No, stay and play with me. |
|
We'll lock it down and sleep outside, |
|
our heads on shoulders. |
|
Okay? That's how it be; |
|
that's what our love is, |
|
and will hold us til we're older. |
|
Don't go indoors if the walls that are waiting |
|
have a way of hindering healing laughter in your chest. |
|
And don't try to speak any words of how you're hating |
|
when the song of how you're loving is always best. |
|
No, stay and play with me. |
|
We'll lock it down and sleep outside, |
|
our heads on shoulders. |
|
Okay? That's how it be; |
|
that's what our love is, |
|
and will hold us til we're older. |
|
I believe these are end times. |
|
Wouldn't it be best to be together then? |
|
The smell of your box on my mustache |
|
or a crossword on our mind. |
