about

From the 2016 album 'Whisper if You Want To Go Faster'.

lyrics

Pretend it's the afternoon and sleep in the room like you did in the womb.
The weather's so cold that it bites the joy is all lost during the morning and nights.
We soak up the sun like reptiles while the inbreds try to sell us their smiles.
Behind their eyes are shadows they just don't remember where the light goes.

And you said something in the pouring rain,
your lips fuller than they've ever been,
and so needed proof eventually came.

There in the dark and the bar,
breaking what I have into shard after shard
get in or be dragged by the car.
When your hand wakes your hair it brings birds to the yard
and it's tearing me out.
Sit fragilely, beat the love into me
and it's tearing me out.
Every bruise a reminder.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Your pain goes but returns, what is good for us is not worth the concern.
These mountains can protect, but not from yourself if your hearth is a wreck.
So we double our single beds and our screams seem to bring new life to the place.

And you said something in the pouring rain,
your lips fuller than they've ever been,
you said you could love any one of me.
