We escape from the house   As the day disappears from the sky   Into night we became what we wanted to be   like a dream or a ghost   I collapse out of turn   Near a house lying still in the grass   And felt the heat from the ground rising up to contract   And expand like a breath   We leave from that place soaked with sweat   And the poison we drank   Fll the bathtub with, ice hope his fever will break   Like a heart easily.    But I do not recall all the words that were formed   On those wire lips as they greeted me   A promise was made without thought as the temperature climbed   And I started to sink like the moon tends to do   If you stare at it so long   Then you blink and it's gone   And we crawl to our sleep with the dawn   Take it back   And isn't it the same mistake?   And isn't it the same mistake?   And isn't it the same mistake?   There's not much you can escape   And isn't it the same?   We awake in the light   Feeling hollow and selfishly warm   Close the blinds and retreat until what's burning is gone   And its light is away   Then we're back in the dark   Chasing nothing through backyards and trees   You ripped your shirt on a fence   But it didn't get me   Yeah, it's fear, it makes you slow   And these creatures look crooked   Their shadows cut lines through my face   And the concrete is fire where my bare feet are placed   In a line next to yours   And I guess I'm not sure if it's fear that was born   As those awful eyes laid their claim on us   I put my hands on the fence   Said your name and I started to climb   And it must have been sweat but I drank it like wine   It was sweet, my mouth was dry   I heard your scream but I made no reply   I can still taste it now if i try
