Lyrics

You always got those dark sunglasses Covering up your face But if you promise to take them off I promise I won't squander your gaze I will be picturesque I will be nice I will do anything you can tell your wife I will think before I act I will think twice Just let me see your eyes Eyes She softly spoken But when I'm not talking Written until they were heard And I was giggling and dizzy Flirting like a twelve year old girl The carnival of you and me Is coming to town Watch how we spin and spin Then fall down If you just say hello And head for firmer ground You're the one way glass That watches me Standing in line At the bank And I always looked into your glasses Like a cat looks into a fish tank But all I could ever see Was the specter of me reflected I want a monument to the friendship That we never had erected I want it to take up lots of room I want it to loom You always got those dark sunglasses Between us when we talk But I know the party is over If you want to take a walk We could just look around And not do nothing wrong Try to be at least as brave as our songs I will bring my heart I will bring my face You name the time and place You crawl You crawl You crawl You crawl You crawl into my bed that night Like some sort of giant insect And I found myself spellbound At the sight of you Beautiful and grotesque And all the rest of that bug stuff Fluffing your way into my mouth Behind my teeth Reaching for my scars Reaching for my scars Reaching for my scars Reaching for my scars That night we got kicked out of two bars And we just laughed our way home That night you You You You You You You leaned over And threw up into your hair And I held you there Thinking I would offer you my pulse If I thought it would be useful I would give you my breath Except the problem with that Is we have some hundred years And then they can build buildings on our only bones A hundred years And then your grave is not your own And we lie in our beds and our graves Unable to save ourselves From the quaint tragedies we invent And undo from the stupid circumstances We swallow And I realized that night That a hall light which seemed so bright When you turned it on Is nothing compared to the dawn Which is nothing compared to the light Which seeps from me while you're sleeping It seeps from me while you're sleeping Yes it seeps from me while you're sleeping Cocooned in my room Beautiful and grotesque Resting that night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That night That
