Once again my friend is overly Unconcerned about the sky When the ceiling caves in over me And the wind carves out my eyes Hold me oh so close and tenderly Let it never cross your mind That the only road to anywhere Is the road we left behind But no one needs a helping hand to hold the edge of a knife When they’re cutting cards Nobody needs you to be so hard Now the ocean's full of enemies And the rivers can't decide If they want to keep on filtering out there So they let the banks run dry Take my lips to keep from muttering Take the air out from my lungs Take your arms and pull them into me Wrap yourself around my tongue This slowly acting poison won't be spoiling all of this wine And if you're feeling fine I wanna believe you When you say it's a long way off If you tell me that you don't know right now Tell me that we'll never know And that it's a long way off I wanna believe And that all we need is time All we need is love Just me and you

My souvenir, my Sunday shoes My shiny hair too much to lose Your weightless flesh so cool and smooth Your Spanish flare a weekend cruise Wet your desire for me I get what I want for free Sex on the beach and daiquiris These dancing moves you have to see Your friends are charmed you must agree My bed is where you want to be Ladeedaladaa It's only once you live this long These teeth are real my pulse is strong The sitch down there won't do you wrong Cause now we're here but soon we're gone Set your desire on me We're both retirees

One of these days the union Of all these little humans Will fall into the open wound Of endless tragedy Dissolving into nowhere We only have opinions And we describe them all at once In perfect harmony Sunlight is free But only if you all agree To leave the biggest piece for me And slowly leave the room I had a dream that you left Only in your sundress While the winter winds swept Frozen ice around your feet And I was holding our son Who doesn't have opinions And leapt into the ocean Where you were waiting underneath And from your lips a song grew That only time is untrue And all the folks that we knew Filled the beach with harmony This time won't you Do this thing that I ask of you And dig a hole where your garden grew Till your 6 feet underneath It's only fair that you know We must decide where you go Please open wide and raise your tongue While we shine a light to see All of the things you're hiding The people you confide in And all the things conspiring in that Space between your cheeks Sunlight won't do If it chooses to shine on you It's only because I asked it to Reflect it onto me One of these days the union Of all these tiny humans Will Sleep under the ocean With the nattering of teeth And up above in heaven They've built my bed to lie in And I will rest there peacefully While you crumble underneath

You smile like you know someone’s secret And the world will not tear you apart I love you so much that my brain turns to mush And I'm losing the grip on my heart You cry and the sky breaks in pieces And mountains crawl back to the surf The waves will unfurl When your lip starts to curl And your tears salt the core of the earth You sing like the wind through the needles And birds paint the clouds where you chirp I love you so truly Even when you're so cruel My heart freezes up when you hurt

I need another redemption I need a chance at it all Somebody who can give me attention Somebody with a place in Montreal I need a view of the ocean I need a four letter word It should smell like a tech innovation Something wet in the guts of a rotting bird I need another addendum I need second chance More time making rotten opinions More time to dance and dance and dance Just to hold you closer ooooo Just to hold you closer now baby The only thing I needed was you I need another kombucha I need a company car Hotwired to explode in the bedroom Hotwired in the blood of a dying star Just to take me closer ooooo Just to take me closer now baby uhhh Closer than I wanted with you I need a final solution I need a sideways glance Some woman who gave up evolution I need a filthy hot dirty swimming pool romance Just to feel emotions ooo I get so emotional baby Emotional over you I need a box of wet wipes I need a place I can crawl into Somewhere it never gets colder than pop tarts Where the air feels better than a Russian zoo Just to take me over ooooo Just to take me over now baby uhhhh I need somebody to cry on I need someone I can hurt Somebody who's a rock in the ocean Somebody with a flaming guitar on their shirt Just to feel emotions ooooo I get so emotional baby uhhhhhh Emotional over you

You can hold him in your arms You can fall for all his charms You can hold it close in your heart but time will slip away And the baby's soft and warm And he slept through the winter storm You could hold it close in your heart but time will slip away And all your lovers and all your friends Did they come for you again You can hold it close in your heart but time will slip away The girl who made you feel That nothing else is real You can hold it close in your heart but time will slip away The wind flits through your hair And they all left you there You can hold it close in your heart but time will slip away And the weeds climb up the rails And the breeze fills up your sails You can hold it close in your heart but time will slip away
