Behind The Frontlines |
Blue light of morning, palm trees in rows |
The end of my affair with the west coast |
I was already dressed when she opened her mouth |
Decided to give up the ghost |
Helicopters, the coast guard and radar screens |
The haunted and lonely technology |
I’ll cut all my ties with the dead and the dying |
I have been wasting my time |
In need of a substance to steady my hands |
I’m gonna make the most of this day’s plans |
Falling in love with the shivering engines |
Falling in love with the prettiest sound |
I’m on your side |
Behind the frontlines |
A tear in the fabric that no one could see |
But your heart was always unraveling |
I gathered the twine as it trailed from behind |
Collected it all in my coat |
The Pacific Ocean you claim as your own |
The vineyard, the graveyard, the grapes and the bones |
Falling in love with the weight of the water |
Falling in love with the taste of the ghost |
I’m on your side |
Behind the frontlines |
On drugs in the dark with the one I love |
That, my friends, is where I wish I was |
Tied up in twine with the dead and the dying |
Dragging back home under her control |
She’s looking for someone to settle her debts |
And I always settle for the silhouettes |
Falling in love with some back-lighted stranger |
Falling in love and going into the red |
I’m on your side |
Behind the frontlines |
