Wissahickon

I almost lost your hair tie when I jumped into the Wissahickon Creek
You caught me at a bad time and I hope you can forgive me
These days I can't explain myself to you or anybody else
These days I hardly recall anything I've ever felt

I'm stepping out
I'm breaking down
I think your sister saw me walk on water now
I hear the noise
But fear the sound
Can you finally hear me now

It's like a funeral procession driving through a minefield
Come on, baby, take your time
It's the fact that my heartbeat will one day retreat
Until it's just that thin flat line
Oh, silent assassin, love is just an action
Put me down nice and slow
Oh, violent creature, will you be my teacher
Or are you just my holy ghost

I'm stepping out
I'm breaking down
I think your sister saw me walk on water now
I hear the noise
But fear the sound
Can you finally hear me now
Now I'm running back
There's no point to this
Like our zodiacs
You'll blame Aquarius
We built it up
Then burned it down
Can you finally hear me now

Oh, nonbeliever, show me what I've been missing now
Oh, nonbeliever, show me the world that cast you out
Violent things
Cheap wedding rings
A well planned verse that nobody sings

I'm stepping out
I'm breaking down
I think your sister saw me walk on water now
I hear the noise
But fear the sound
Can you finally hear me now
Now I'm running back
There's no point to this
Like our zodiacs
You'll blame Aquarius
We built it up
Then burned it down
Can you finally hear me now
