I’m losing what I really needA fucked up friend between the sheetsFlipping around all over the ground, all over the ground, all over the groundHappyTokens spent for the day dream, won’t get into heavenSlide it from your skin and crash out on the pavementHard turns into hollow, take a seed and swallowLets the roots sink in and push onto tomorrowEvery morning I go to sleepPut an old jumper on and take a seatWith the furniture facing outwards from the middle of the roomAnd play cassette tapes in the cornerOh I don’t think this appointment can lastLiving on cold mix and counterfeit cashAnd spreading all my coins across the town’s wishing wellsPools of hell where the head swellsAnd my good friend arrives through the backAnd we clean finger stains from the glassAnd spend the whole time fist fighting pushing words through our skullsYeah he’s begging me that I straighten upHe said,“Yeah there’s kinks in our shadowsCome on, we’re better friends, we’re like arrowsMaybe we’re opposing today but we usually lay straightHere’s a beer, get your gun, lets go out son”Some fruits are false in the this treeIts strange to see lost folks so happy hope freeIts so poignant it hits, licks the filth from the truthAnd I know I gotta leaveThe sea will be be diminished, hardened salt tomorrowThe waves that come today will leave no trace tomorrowIts cold in the boatyardI’m a kid in my pond in our backyardLet the dream slip away, leave your shoes in the rainAnd go drink with the bar succombed free hearts.
Lyrics by Salvage My Dream
