I woke today, trying to find reasons to get madder.
Drink them away, bait the wolves with the clang and the clatter.
Built your bouquet, with flowers growing by the river.
But I won't be around, long enough to see the wilt see them wither.
The outside gods, with razor teeth and marble eyes.
I woke them all, drunk and screaming in the moonlight.
I would help the wolves get fatter.
Walk through the rain, with rings of fire above our heads...
A chorus sang, the splashing tails of minnows.
The sound it bleeds, the meaty hearts of vampires.
Found your flowers growing by the river.
The outside gods, with razor teeth and marble eyes.
I woke them all, drunk and screaming in the moonlight.

As the stone it erodes underneath us
And our feet are left to hang
How I hope that we float and continue
With our old familiar ways
Lemonade that we paid for with quarters
Walking circles in the park
Hallowed ground plus the sound imitating
Bits and pieces of our song
So for now you’ll settle back into some forgotten routine
That makes it better for yourself I’m sure
I had hoped there would be time enough to sort it out but
You had different plans dear
I thought of leaving you here
Troubled heads in the bed where we’re sleeping
Wearing devilish grins
Can we know what we know without having
Being eaten from within
Hold it up so we can see the cracks and ask ourselves now
Was it ever worth the shit, we pulled
I can hardly see us way back when we were young and fucked up but
I need you and not them, I need you and not them
So for now you’ll settle back into some forgotten routine
That makes it better for yourself I’m sure
I can hardly see us way back when we were young and fucked up but
I need you and not them, I need you and not them
Ohh oh oh oh oh
