Blue light of morning palm trees in rows    The end of my affair with the west coast   I was already dressed when she opened her mouth    And decided to give up the ghost    Helicopters the coast guard and radar screens    The haunted and lonely technology    I'll cut all my ties with the dead and the dying    I have been wasting my time   In need of a substance to steady my hands   I'm gonna make the most of this day's plans    Falling in love with the shivering engines    Falling in love with the prettiest sound       I'm on your side   Behind the frontlines       A tear in the fabric that no one could see    But your heart was always unraveling    I gathered the twine as it trailed from behind    Collected it all in my coat   The Pacific Ocean you claim as your own    The vineyard the graveyard the grapes and the bones   Falling in love with the weight of the water    Falling in love with the taste of the ghost       I'm on your side    Behind the frontlines       On drugs in the dark with the one I love    That my friends is where I wish I was   Tied up in twine with the dead and the dying    And dragging back home under her control   She's looking for someone to settle her debts    And I always settle for the silhouettes   Falling in love with some back lighted stranger   Falling in love and going into the red       I'm on your side   Behind the frontlines
