|
We saw the western coast |
|
I saw the hospital |
|
Nursed the shoreline like a wound |
|
Reports of lovers trysts were neither clear nor descript |
|
We kept it safe and slow |
|
The quiet things that no one ever knows |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals |
|
I contemplate the day we wed |
|
Your friends are boring me to death |
|
Your veil is ruined in the rain |
|
By then, you, I can do without |
|
There's nothing new to talk about |
|
And though our kids are blessed |
|
Their parents let them shoulder all the blame |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
Wasting my words on lower cases and capitals |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals |
|
I lie for only you |
|
And I lie well |
|
Hallelujah |
|
I lie for only you |
|
And I lie well |
|
Hallelujah |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
(I lie for only you) |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals |
|
(And I lie well) |
|
So keep the blood in your head |
|
And keep your feet on the ground |
|
If today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we drop out |
|
Gave up my body and bed all for an empty hotel |
|
(Hallelujah) |
|
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals |
