lyrics

I was taut like neck veins strained to peer through the smoke and the dark
Eyes were caught deep in your curves
The lines of your throat
You keep saying things like "don't treat me like a stranger"
I won't be able to move
I might want to get closer to you

So I can be stuck there mouth all hollowed out like a bird's bones

Caught up with you now, man look how she plays with me
Look there just past her shoulder
Don't you see what you've gone and done
I blurt out something unrecognizable to recognize the pain in me
Realizing it's worth
Reconvening the heart that pumps the wildest blood away

So I can be stuck there mouth all hollowed out like a bird's bones

Now it's getting late, I'm shaking my fists at the sun's awakening
Dragging my feet
Fighting with dreams
She's run me through, she's run a thought right through me
It's funny you know
How you've crept up and slipped yourself so snug in me

So I can be stuck there mouth all hollowed out like a bird's bones
