A Red So Deep Lyrics by Cursive

Domestica

2000

[Verse 1]
The furnace burns, the baby turns
She cries when she's hungry
The morning paper will knock the door
To interrupt their slumbers

[Chorus 1]
But are you satisfied tonight, oh, trader's wife?
(Oh, trader's wife)
Does he neglect you?
Crawling bar stools and touching the girls
(And touching the girls)
As you wash their smell from his clothes

[Verse 2]
They shoot the horses when they're too old to race
(the bear the bull the bear)
And so, my dear, is there room in bed for me?
([?])
The setting sun has etched lines upon this face
([?])
Shades of red of a furious defeat
([?])

[Chorus 2]
Are you satisfied tonight, oh, trader's wife?
(Oh, trader's wife)
As he thinks to you:
"I don't know you anymore
(I don't know you anymore)
And I can't breathe in this apartment"

[Bridge]
Sleep, my Sweetie, let the days expire
They've outnumbered you
Hold me sweetly, like those days we bled with love
A red so deep, we sunk
We sunk

[Guitar Solo]
