Open in app

I saw you

coming so I got to running

Like hell, I could tell that

you played for keeps

Now I live on a boat that sits on a moat

On top of piss river, outside your castle

And wind death comes 'round, we all sing,

"Oh, what an asshole"

He stirs quite the fuss and he

cause quite the hassle

We all buy black suits as our

lives go on mute

And meet under the belfry

to cry and say sorry

Do you want to play chess

inside my chest?

You move, I move

You choose, I choose

And hoot, hoot, hoot

I beg like an owl

As I sit on my perch

And I stare and I scowl

I know I left you

But I cannot forget you

Now I only know how to harm or upset you

Open in app

I tried to pray but I didn't

know what to say

So I just mumbled some names

I said, "I hope they're okay

then amen"

They were the names of my

family and friends

Oh, the planet's so lonely and the

planet's so cold

And if I'm so lucky I'll die when I'm old

I pray no disaster, no fight, no rain

And I pray that no devil gets

inside my brain

As the world does its twirl

between the moon and the sun

Casting clock shadows

beyond everyone

And the hours devour us

As I stare out my window, as I ride this bus

In men it goes fast, in men what a blur

But I write it just the same

or just as it were

That feeling in my stomach

when the light was low

And I get warm in my chest

when my heart would slow

That feeling in my head

when that music played

Get dizzy in my soul from the glad

song they sang

What a dream to have ever

felt the air so warm

What a dream to have

even ever been born
