lyrics

She took me down in the middle of the day to this old sunken pool hall where we used to play
And I told her I like her eyes while she emptied a Collins and played with her braid
She said she’d like to climb up a tree and have a look down at all of the scavenging fleas
Who would put on their suits and hurry miserably while their poor lonely housewives would drown in sake

Keep em’ killer, don’t be sorry to miss me
I was writer, while you were reading a mystery
At ten to noon I was patiently knocking, but you censored the shutter and you left me to rot
So I got on the train and I rode to the stop where you seemingly ceased to belong in my locket
You had been drinking so I took you back home, but you asked me to stay and you said that you won’t
Feel the same way tomorrow, so leave and it’s over, but how could I know what you’d think when you’re sober

Pitch me love, pitch me pictures of happiness
Send me to run, then bring me back with your carelessness

I’m just a horse, running loose in your wilderness
You are the desert, you promise nothing but emptiness

And it’s a long way back if you think you can walk it
I’m sick of this trail, so sick of the dark
But there’s a fork splitting the most discrete difference
And oddly enough I don’t care if I miss it
And if I find you in pieces again
Getting torched on your fire and throwing a fit
Then I will take you back home all over again
And we’d start this all up from the top, now where do we begin

And it’s a long way back if you think you can walk it
I’m sick of this trail, so god damn sick of the dark
But there’s a fork splitting the most discrete difference
And oddly enough I don’t care if I miss it
And if I find you in pieces again
Getting torched on your fire and throwing a fit
Then I will take you back home all over again
And we’d start this all up from the top, now where do we begin
