Trunk Eyes |
| The way that she cuts through a room |
| Makes me want to exhume the madness |
| That flits between our lips like dynamite |
| And a moistened wick so |
| You feel like a firefly |
| Whose lamp’s unlit |
| And smothered by |
| The bed, the sweat, the dawns of the past |
| The taste of the small of an old lover’s laugh so |
| You bust your bank try to build a better |
| Bang for your buck, DNA to out distance |
| The tethers that you’re tied to |
| The family lines that will hang you out to dry |
| And you wonder why |
| Our hearts are such hungry beasts |
| The harder we starve them the more all-consuming |
| And I understand they’ll never find the love that they need |
| So we try to run 'em into the ground |
| As I watch her unpack her hair |
| Like stacks of black pyramids |
| So I smile like a crack in a dam or |
| A condemned chair to electric man so |
| (she wants stability) |
| What’s that I can’t hear you? |
| (she wants stability) |
| So I’ll go and buy her a pony |
| (she wants stability) |
| I’ll lay my head on a goddamn platter |
| (she wants stability) |
| But in the end, it doesn’t really matter 'cause |
| Our hearts are such hungry beasts |
| The harder we starve them the more all-consuming |
| And I understand they’ll never find the love that they need |
| So we try to run 'em into the… |
| Our heads are bottled up by the most heathen thoughts |
| Our bodies hang in limbo of what we need and what we want |
| She’s a cutter but I love her just the same |
| Undercover but I never learned her real name |
| (x2)she's a gutter but I love her just the same |
| Undercover but I never learned her real name |
| (I'm an old man, I’m only getting older, the world gets younger as I push |
| boulders) |
