Snakes and Martyrs |
Everyone makes the same wave at the same time |
(like pebbles on water) |
And we call all those interrupting lines |
(sons and daughters) |
A community |
So let’s join hands in some |
Blessed unity |
But brother |
I don’t wanna know ya |
I don’t even wanna know ya |
And sister |
I don’t wanna know ya |
I don’t even wanna know ya |
But we’re trapped |
In this lovely mess |
I hold you close and smile |
Fake, like they do way out west |
So many medicines for |
So many heads, and |
I’d help you clean those skeletons |
From under your bed, but |
I don’t even know ya |
How could it be me that sends you? |
Darling |
Didn’t your momma |
Tell you not to let no stranger bend you? |
Probably someone here that could |
Help to mend you |
But it’s not me |
Got my own anxiety |
Sadness isn’t any way to explain |
(Sadness isn’t any way to explain) |
We’ll probably crash heads throughout (?) |
(I know you’re crying tonight) |
The course of this sin |
(drunk and insane) |
It’s as simple as the way you wear your unpolished shoes |
And your righteous rays (a rainbow) |
But all I know is your blues ain’t like my blues |
And why would they be? |
If there’s one commonality |
It’s that that feeling’s mutual |
Given time you’ll see |
You’ll see |
