Plague Dogs

Two-sun-dogs locked and away outta sight
Holding on to the words dreams of you while I thought

Winter got the cover in the cold dead light
Spring it brought the plague in the dogs
We were waiting and quiet

If Summer got another lover rolling with the dice
Well then Autumn got the bottom of the barrel
Just between you and I

Left to watch the year die
Guess it's the state of my mind

Everybody's running out of time
Everybody's coming after you and I
Everybody's running out of time
Even me and you

We were getting lost
Tried to brush this aside
Mother stabbed your father in the arm with the push of a knife
Trying to save him from the flies

And Of course we can't run
We're running out of time
And the weight, on my head
And my heart, its a human mind
Whenever its alone

Everybody's running on their own
Everybody's coming after you and I
Everybody's running out of time
Even me and you

I've had the strangest thoughts
To keep the cold war hot

I'm getting you down now
Guess the world forgot

I'm letting you down
Getting you down, now, too

Everybody's running out of time
Everybody's coming after you and I
After me and you

Two dogs paddle away outta site
Running while the words eating you alive
You and I alone

Two dogs paddle away outta site
Running while the words eating us alive
You and I alone
