lyrics

When it’s raining in the Ides of March; and the snow’s still stuck in drains; and it’s kicking off the heels of cars; and the sputtering wet keeps you awake. I’m still reeling from these last few months. And I’m sorting through it’s razor blades. But I’m dulling off the edges one by one and hoping for circular shapes. If your head’s in a mine about to pop, I could dust off the debris of your face. I could stitch it up with pulp and glue and make the prettiest of paper maches. Yeah, the dead in your eyes could make a few worlds collide. And I think I hear explosions in space. BAM BAM in my gut like a pinball machine, hitting walls long debased. Darling, lie on these arms tonight. I might want you. Hell, I need you and in this spring, it’s so hard to leave you. I’ll rock the boat if you hold the oars and tend. On this feeder river, with an eager lover on the mend. Every spring the river would get flooded. And every spring the buildings would get gutted. I like to think of the locals going fishing; and beer drinking; and porch swimming. Now the bank’s all hoisted and irrigated. And there’s a bridge and the kids that get to bridge jumping. That fear gets my heart pounding. And I think about our 2 future kids and teaching em baseball. Cus me, I’d rather not fall. I’d rather grow old with you in my head.
