Living Memory
A summer chill
Descending on the fields behind our houses
Biting like a palm on glass
One letter away
From loving you, or losing you
Did it ever happen if we cannot find the scars
In the confusion
I left behind the damns I'd left to give
I'm dangerously free
And you were guarded
Forming fragile barricades with quiet
How could you love a motormouth like me
All the air's been knocked out from my teeth
Can't hiss, can't kiss, can't bite my lip, can't say the filth that bubbles underneath
And I can't stop talking
But nothing's being said, and nothing's being done
And my brain still gets my voice to flood on out
But it can't get my frozen feet to run
Empty words, and useless proverbs, and something that seemed funny at the time
But it crossed a line
An autumn warmth
Thick and humid, anxious and unnatural
It's almost just like us
If living memory
Is still alive, but it's not really living
We've only got each other left to trust
So, sweetheart, baby, darlin', honey
(Useless)
(Something that seemed funny)
Keep wheezing, listening to my voice
I know I'm not the obvious choice
But maybe we'd be better off
With some romantic Molotov
Burning up this dying town
With simple little love
(Chill)
(Warmth)
Descending on
Our houses
Confusion
Loving you or losing you
(One letter away from loving you or losing you)
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
Descending on the fields behind our houses
Biting like a palm on glass
One letter away
From loving you, or losing you
Did it ever happen if we cannot find the scars
In the confusion
I left behind the damns I'd left to give
I'm dangerously free
And you were guarded
Forming fragile barricades with quiet
How could you love a motormouth like me
All the air's been knocked out from my teeth
Can't hiss, can't kiss, can't bite my lip, can't say the filth that bubbles underneath
And I can't stop talking
But nothing's being said, and nothing's being done
And my brain still gets my voice to flood on out
But it can't get my frozen feet to run
Empty words, and useless proverbs, and something that seemed funny at the time
But it crossed a line
An autumn warmth
Thick and humid, anxious and unnatural
It's almost just like us
If living memory
Is still alive, but it's not really living
We've only got each other left to trust
So, sweetheart, baby, darlin', honey
(Useless)
(Something that seemed funny)
Keep wheezing, listening to my voice
I know I'm not the obvious choice
But maybe we'd be better off
With some romantic Molotov
Burning up this dying town
With simple little love
(Chill)
(Warmth)
Descending on
Our houses
Confusion
Loving you or losing you
(One letter away from loving you or losing you)
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
Loving you or losing you
