Shins, The - Kissing The Lipless текст песни

Called

to see

if your back

was still aligned

and your sheets

were growing grass all on the corners of your bed

but you've

go too much to wear on your sleeves

it has too much to do with me

and secretly

I want bury in the yard

the grey remains

of a friendship scarred



You told us of your new life there

you got someone comin' around

gluing tinsel to your crown

he's got you talking pretty loud

you berate

remember your ailing heart

and your criminal eyes

you say you're still in love

if it's true what can be done

it's hard to leave

all those moments behind



You tested

your metal

of doe's skin

and petals

while kissing

the lipless

who bleed all the sweetness away
