| Toothless and tired, my soul finds the door
|
| To breathe and to be nothing less, nothing more
|
| Safe from disaster and spared by your love
|
| Settle down now, I think that’s enough
|
| Settle down now, that’s surely enough
|
| Clung to its sleeve, this old heart’s fit to choke
|
| Lest you light up my drink or you fill up my smoke
|
| All the parents and the poets can cry in their graves
|
| From the lack of the love you gave
|
| From the lack of the love we gave
|
| We are frivolous with our hearts
|
| Watch them bend till they break
|
| Then we pick up the parts
|
| Yeah, we give, we take
|
| We save and condemn
|
| And we live just to love again
|
| Comfort reminds us of how it should feel
|
| It wistfully chains us to fictive ideals
|
| And it spurs us to keep all our love in a jar
|
| Says I’m just keeping you from harm
|
| Just trying to keep you from harm
|
| We are frivolous with our hearts
|
| Watch them bend till they break
|
| Then we pick up the parts
|
| Yeah, we give, we take
|
| We save and condemn
|
| And we live just to love again
|
| Well, someday we’ll see we’ve got nothing to lose
|
| We’ll be dancing on tables in our Sunday shoes
|
| And you’ll know that these words I would never betray
|
| You’re the rose and the thorn and you’re safe
|
| You’re the rose and the thorn and you’re safe
|
| Yeah, you’re the rose and the thorn and you’re safe |
