|
Stutter step to the beat of a disparaged lover. |
|
Dumb and pulsing we've become. |
|
The bedroom door is an old black lung. |
|
It's arrhythmic. |
|
Uninviting and pliable. |
|
With the noble irreverence of shrapnel she came for us. |
|
Bore into our heads and found thoughtlessness. |
|
Never minded the faithless courage of shame or the bravery of oblivion, When I'm on her mind I'm never coming back. |
|
If two timing is what it takes then we both know one take is all we need. |
|
We're not equipped to stay unloved. |
|
But it's all we've got and we're not at all alright |
|
Come on baby and give me the creeps. |
|
Either you or I or both must go. |
|
Either you or I or both must go. |
|
When I'm on her mind I'm never coming back. |
|
If two timing is what it takes then we both know one take is all we need. |
|
We're not equipped to stay unloved. |
|
But it's all we've got and we're not at all alright. |
|
There's no difference between being holy and alone. |
|
That's why I'm eagerly fleeing the scene. |
|
Lead footed. |
|
Baby return the favor and leave somebody you love. |
|
If they come back they're drunk and they're lonely. |
|
We all get lonely. |
|
God forbid we indulge when at sea. |
|
Just the tempest, the temptress, and me. |
|
Naturally a born thriller. |
|
Nobody knows the trouble I've been or the exacting improvement of sin. |
|
I'm handing myself over. |
|
I'm turning myself in |
|
War has no glory like a woman ignored. |
|
So here's to the empires polluted with dead. |
|
And the truckers' wives who erected them. |
|
I know the stripper's real name.(4x) |
|
Stop me if I'm wrong. |
