lyrics

hold me tight,
and shut me up for the night;
press a nail into my hand.
leave a mark,
stare down at the bright red arc,
make a last desperate stand.
desert dry—
your cocoon that leaves me high,
until the day is almost gone.
drive on through,
try to burn down a bridge or two,
try to put a brave face on.

but i stay thirsty
when i lie on my bed
and remember you.

pains increase—
sing out the troubled beast,
hold me up in effigy.
helpless day,
you better get the fuck away,
get the fuck away from me.

when these lying eyes have had their fun
and i’m down here in your arms again,
you whisper holy prophecy,
scriptures written in the air that breathes
around us.

but i stay thirsty
when i lie on my bed
and remember you.

get the fuck away.
