lyrics

My narrow limits. My lack of confidence.
My endless great, great powerlessness.
My deep desires and short sight.
I'll sit, be quiet and listen.
Turned myself down a notch, cranked you up a lot.
That's of no use when the speakers are falling apart.
You said you would not leave till I'm in a cold dark grave.
Oh, I still picture tombstones wearing our pretty names.

You'd put your head through the wall.
I'd pick you up when you'd fall.
Thought we could be
A glaring guiding light for all the world to see.
My smile's a skeleton grin.
Killed such a beautiful thing.
I doubt that God
Would sacrifice another son for us.

I felt my body lose the control
A million cigarettes ago.
The hopes and fears from all these years
Are here with us tonight.
They are taking shapes and given names
Until the morning light.

You'd put your head through the wall
I'd pick you up when you'd fall
Thought we could be
A glaring guiding light for all the world to see.
My smile's a skeleton grin.
Killed such a beautiful thing.
I doubt that God
would sacrifice another son for us.
What kind of bastard nails his child to the cross?

Better to be angry than nothing at all.
Better to be gone when the curtain calls.
It's the tiniest things that keep life interesting
Like an airplane crash or a school shooting.
The danger is you don't resist.
The danger is you die like this.
Oh, I won’t wait for what time may bring.
The way out is the way in.

The way out is the way in.
Our pretty names carved on a grave.
