lyrics

They tore down an eyesore in less than an hour
And the dust rose like the Eye of God
In a chemical flower.
That broken space is my broken offering.
The snaking headlamps on the black epitaph
Read "Once you're gone, you don't ever come back".
The pouring rain is filling in the graves.

So we cast a rose and it's thorns
As a building blueprint is drawing.

Bicycle stalemates sit chained to railings,
Those mismatched patterns of oxidized marriage.
And rattled bones still turning house to home.
Summer gushes with brand new haircuts.
Pinstripe tuxes in playground portraits.
The scaffolding set for the last one left.

Well I'm gonna get my feet wet.
Dance with your whirlwind wedding dress.
Be the last one left.
