Lyrics

By the bottom of the paper on your bedside The thoughts are running thin The creek off the river is asleep now Don't know if it'll start again So you're sleeping on the edges of the bed now To get the green all over your skin There you are playing by the candle Cause that's how you handle abyss Holding your mouth wide open Getting shit off of your chest Like a glass of something in the evening Like your back to a heart broke mess But you're So tired No longer So dry No longer Babe you left your ghost in the top floor Mom and dad crying for help But they all keep on breathing And the dog keeps being himself Dead end pattern seeking Maybe you should hang those up Boots in the forest this season Keep digging up squares of mud Keep digging up squares of mud Keep digging up squares of mud But you're So tired No longer So dry No longer Baby cut her little ring finger Says she don't want to be tied You stare down that anger Shut eyes can't take it in stride So you put a match to a candle Lift letters from a magazine Almost too much to handle When it all comes crashing in When it all comes crashing in When it all comes crashing in
