forever sound

pianos become the teeth

forever sound

whistle around the ring

wetness on the lip

like phantom weeping

chemicals gave us time to tell

right?

this little creek

so barren and bleak and dark

winding at the bend

it's almost heaven

all is wild

all is wonderful

right?

and state lines

with nothing to show

so long and slow

stay just out of reach

just take us home

forever sound

whistle around the ring

wetness on the lip

and the glass rim sings

like the voice of who we'll never meet

and our heaven went astray

drowned out like indigo

and you're bitter wine that's tasteless

never came along with time

and state lines

with nothing to show

so long and slow

stay just out of reach

just take us home

we're the best

pretty good at waiting

but in the end

bodies for the taking

you were the best violent motivation

a valentine

still but somehow shaking

potomac river secrets floating on along their way

lost but somehow staying

and state lines

with nothing to show

so long and slow

stay just out of reach

just take us home

these bed sheets

like bodies all alone

never there at all

old road just take us home
