[Hook] x2 Outside, there's a boxcar waitin' for us. It ain't in a rush So we can paint with a brush made of patience and such And keep the faith in our guts [Verse 1] Now these ants in my heart got it dancin' in the dark With a flash and a spark, she advances with a shark In a choke hold, no cold, we're eatin' good tonight The two leadin' look-a-likes, from every seedy nook in site Hindsight flight of the offshore fishermen This feelin' even better than the fair-weather men That led me to believe, led me to the seas Where the fish and disease are just wicks lit in the breeze Leave, the injuries leave like a treaty From the hand of the bleeding, while we stand there repeating "We can't leave this evening; it's too young to start retreating We can't leave this evening; it's too young to start retreating." [Bridge]x2 So now we're leaping from highs to highers As we're sleeping beside a fire And it's creeping inside the bed Creeping inside the bed, creeping inside the bed [Hook] x2 [Verse 2] So with a stomach full of monarchs and eat, sleep on repeat We leave them two leaves and leave this life At ease riders on a storm Too perfect to put into words; perfect is what it deserves Curve the hurt and the nerves, so we can work our limbs Around an urge and grin and bear the verge of overkill Motor skill heads, heading towards a bed of roses, called a haystack And on the way back, I see her face crack She's having dreams that a runaway cat came back And I don't know what to say that'll change that And I can't take that (I can't) So when I can taste your misery, vividly I want to instantly turn it into history Bitterly sweet hearts and in the restart Livin' like we heart too heart to heart for... [Hook] x4
