Oh, how we lay like spoiled skin beneath the leaves   Oh, how the ring will never fit the finger properly   If I could rip it from its bond   I'd tie your eyes to me so tight   Because the years are getting slower      Oh, I'm a suitcase with the hinges bursting free   As to say you're stuffed too full   You have to give your lover's throat away   So through each pore I sweat the linger of your love away   So fast because our love is getting slippery      Somehow the sky is holding up the heavens   But I can't get the ground to hold the earth up anymore   And all our friends are finding life inside the ocean   But my pockets scream you can't afford to live there anymore      For all of my life I will keep you in my lower leg   Where all my sins are piled right up to my shoulder blade   And I will visit you with thoughts of the left side of my brain   Until the artery leads me back to you
