Suck the Blood from My Wound |
I woke up bleeding in the crotch of a tree |
TV blaring on the wall above the coffee machine |
Car wash waiting room outside Pasadena |
I’m sitting waiting for my deus ex machina |
And I’m forever changed by this chemical burn |
Skin on my fingers peeling, making way for my new form |
I grip the steering wheel and picture my angel |
Climbing out the hospital window |
Leaving tubes in a tangle |
Blood on my angel’s lips blends in with his makeup |
He’s off the premises before his brain’s had time to wake up |
Peeling off bandages to unfold his wings |
The doctors said they’d have to stay on for another three weeks |
Fuck it baby, let 'em bruise, let 'em break |
But bleed, let 'em bleed |
And I’m doing ninety, gotta get there and hold him |
If we can make it across the state line then baby, we’re golden |
Let the law pronounce its petty assertions |
They’ve been outsmarted by a couple of urchins |
And they hurt you bad, man |
They hurt me too |
But I’m not about to sit here and watch as they |
Suck the blood from my wound |
They suck the blood from my wound |
Suck the blood from my wound |
Suck the blood from my wound |
Ohh man |
Wrap half the money in your hospital garment |
We’ll stash the rest inside the red Camaro’s secret compartment |
Even the deepest wounds will heal over time |
I’ll run my fingers over your scars and yours over mine |
They’ll never find us if we turn off our phones |
We’re off the grid, we’re off our meds |
We’re finally out on our own |
Now I see color coming back in your cheeks |
Angel, don’t fight it |
To them you know we’ll always be freaks |
To them we’ll always be freaks |
We’ll always |
Park for the night northwest of Baton Rouge |
Across the parking lot you’re stretching the one wing you can move |
I let you walk as long as fear will allow |
I’ve never loved you more than I love you now |
And then we’re back on the road before the sun’s even up |
We’re making time, we’re making progress |
But progress towards what? |
Your fallen feathers fill up two shopping bags |
The future’s breathing down the neck of the past |
And the sun throws a shit-eating shine on the moon |
And I’m not about to wait for them to come |
Suck the blood from my wound |
Suck the blood from my wound |
Suck the blood from my wound |
Suck the blood from my wound |
A plague on both your houses |
A plague on both your houses |
