Rooftops
You sound so hazy
There's nothing better than sleeping on
The middle of a busy street
Your eyes are four times
And your teeth always wrapped around
My little fingers
And what doesn't kill me will only break my bones
The smoke dancers dance as pretty we still choke
I wish I could remember what happened that night
It's a blur, it's a blur, it's a blur, it's a blur
And before I pass out please kiss my forehead
Lay me on the floor and you lay in your bed
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't kiss, no we don't kiss
Because I think I might kind of like it
And now I'm finally sleeping but it's never next to you
And we're both far too lonely for our own fucking good
I divided up our bounty, spent mine on a death wish
Told you that I came down, not too sure that I did
Has anyone seen my wallet I don't know where my shoes are
And how can I hold you up if I don't know where my crutch is
And you came in the strongest little boy I'd ever seen
You were there with your foot plastered and breath like gasoline
You came to me I'm sure it was too little too late
So I washed my hands and I wiped the shit from my face
And I don't wanna drink but there's no perfect time to change
How do you make something so tiny sound so ashamed
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't kiss, no we don't kiss
Because I think I might kind of like it
And now I'm finally sleeping but it's never next to you
And we're both far too lonely for our own fucking good
I divided up our bounty, spent mine on a death wish
Told you that I came down, not too sure that I did
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't stop no, we don't stop no
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't stop no, we don't stop no
There's nothing better than sleeping on
The middle of a busy street
Your eyes are four times
And your teeth always wrapped around
My little fingers
And what doesn't kill me will only break my bones
The smoke dancers dance as pretty we still choke
I wish I could remember what happened that night
It's a blur, it's a blur, it's a blur, it's a blur
And before I pass out please kiss my forehead
Lay me on the floor and you lay in your bed
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't kiss, no we don't kiss
Because I think I might kind of like it
And now I'm finally sleeping but it's never next to you
And we're both far too lonely for our own fucking good
I divided up our bounty, spent mine on a death wish
Told you that I came down, not too sure that I did
Has anyone seen my wallet I don't know where my shoes are
And how can I hold you up if I don't know where my crutch is
And you came in the strongest little boy I'd ever seen
You were there with your foot plastered and breath like gasoline
You came to me I'm sure it was too little too late
So I washed my hands and I wiped the shit from my face
And I don't wanna drink but there's no perfect time to change
How do you make something so tiny sound so ashamed
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't kiss, no we don't kiss
Because I think I might kind of like it
And now I'm finally sleeping but it's never next to you
And we're both far too lonely for our own fucking good
I divided up our bounty, spent mine on a death wish
Told you that I came down, not too sure that I did
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't stop no, we don't stop no
And we don't sleep, no we don't sleep
Because we're way too fucking tired
And we don't stop no, we don't stop no
