I wear a sweater in the fall,
To cover all my aching skin,
And I grew a beard in the spring,
So everything could itch within
All that comes around goes back around and back around until the sound is deafening
I belong in a different bed,
To rest my head drowned in her warmth,
And I've never fallen down this deep,
But I get to keep all of the sores
All that comes around goes back around and back around until we're down and back for more
Ticket stubs and butchered hugs are the lifeblood of the sick,
I'm not dying yet but I admit I've got a case of it
She kissed me once when she was drunk,
Called it bad luck and drove me home,
Now I can't sleep til I regret,
The pillow's wet with dial tones
All that comes around goes back around and back around except the town you called your own

Patch up the morning, in the morning comes a bigger disgrace,
Last night was easy you received these million compliments in change,
But in the morning, it's all riding on how she closes the door to put on her face,
If she resents you, or attempts to, there's a crew on center stage
You go to take a breather in your bimmer everything is sure to heal,
A song comes on in summer that was bitter in the winter it makes you feel,
All along it's been a long and lonely journey to a stable state,
In two weeks time it's lost its shine the pedestals you've built are sure to break
Tonight if I die, if I die, tell me why,
Three songs a day kept the women away, and take me home
Pour a glass of fireball and chase it with some ethanol it's good to feel that kind of warmth,
When you sense your stomach's bleeding worry about your hair receding first,
I am not a fireman I can't reach out for your burning hand, your house engulfed in flames,
But if you want to be that way I'll sit right here and wait to take your name
Tonight if I die, if I die, tell me why,
Three songs a day kept the women away, and take me home
You, semper fi, semper fi, tell me why,
Three songs a day won't take me away into your home

Housewives + Morticians

When a fire burns it takes a while to douse it into smoke,
My grandfather turned eighty-three rotations before he choked,
And never looked at anyone besides his own
Maybe that's why you couldn't find a different route than to run,
But baby could you choose a little faster next time you fly through sons,
Of housewives and morticians
How can we sleep like our parents do?
I used to think I could marry you
If I passed away, I'd watch you at my funeral in what you wore,
And how you felt that day, depending on who my parents picked to mourn,
Would you dance on my grave? Could I eat the grass you tore?
How can we sleep like our parents do?
I used to think I could marry you

There's a joke somewhere in here that I don't feel like making,
We're alone in a basement that we've no point to stay in,
I could hold your weak and brittle bones to rust in the fall
I would kneel to a master if I thought that I had one,
But the deal never lasts unless I catch rhododendrons,
And return them to their rightful owner's grave and watch them sprawl
Fatal lie, I walked up the east side,
To find shelter in shopping malls
Strung out and dried, depleted of an eye light,
I believe in love after all
There's a joke somewhere in here that I don't feel like making,
We're alone in a basement that we've no point to stay in,
I could hold your weak and brittle bones to rust
