3 Swallows Lyrics by Protomartyr

No Passion All Technique (Reissue)

2012

[Verse 1]
I'm getting old
Worse than before
Un-invincible
Close but not pitiful
I discovered
To drink it slowly
The great unfolding
And wait for their arms to hold me

[Chorus 1]
Down the hall
Alcohol for free
All alone with me
All alone with me

[Chorus 2]
You used to be so beautiful
But tomorrow dawns for me

[Verse 2]
I was there
This city far away
Gone are all the pressures of
All that comes with getting old

[Chorus 2]
You used to be so beautiful
But tomorrow dawns for me
And three swallows there for me

[Verse 3]
And I used to light my cigarettes
On the fire that you had in your eyes
And I was the king of hanging around with wastes of time

[Chorus 2]
And three swallows there for me
And three swallows there for me

[Outro]
For me
For me
For me
