You always got those dark sunglasses
Covering up your face
But if you promise to take them off
I promise I won't squander your gaze
I will be picturesque
I will be nice
I will do anything you can tell your wife
I will think before I act
I will think twice
Just let me see your eyes
Eyes
She softly spoken
But when I'm not talking
Written until they were heard
And I was giggling and dizzy
Flirting like a twelve year old girl
The carnival of you and me
Is coming to town
Watch how we spin and spin
Then fall down
If you just say hello
And head for firmer ground
You're the one way glass
That watches me
Standing in line
At the bank
And I always looked into your glasses
Like a cat looks into a fish tank
But all I could ever see
Was the specter of me reflected
I want a monument to the friendship
That we never had erected
I want it to take up lots of room
I want it to loom
You always got those dark sunglasses
Between us when we talk
But I know the party is over
If you want to take a walk
We could just look around
And not do nothing wrong
Try to be at least as brave as our songs
I will bring my heart
I will bring my face
You name the time and place
You crawl
You crawl
You crawl
You crawl
You crawl into my bed that night
Like some sort of giant insect
And I found myself spellbound
At the sight of you
Beautiful and grotesque
And all the rest of that bug stuff
Fluffing your way into my mouth
Behind my teeth
Reaching for my scars
Reaching for my scars
Reaching for my scars
Reaching for my scars
That night we got kicked out of two bars
And we just laughed our way home
That night you
You
You
You
You
You
You leaned over
And threw up into your hair
And I held you there
Thinking I would offer you my pulse
If I thought it would be useful
I would give you my breath
Except the problem with that
Is we have some hundred years
And then they can build buildings on our only bones
A hundred years
And then your grave is not your own
And we lie in our beds and our graves
Unable to save ourselves
From the quaint tragedies we invent
And undo from the stupid circumstances
We swallow
And I realized that night
That a hall light which seemed so bright
When you turned it on
Is nothing compared to the dawn
Which is nothing compared to the light
Which seeps from me while you're sleeping
It seeps from me while you're sleeping
Yes it seeps from me while you're sleeping
Cocooned in my room
Beautiful and grotesque
Resting that night
