knuckles white dry

gang of youths

deep in the breath of a carrier

coughing up blood is the worst case scenario

no way in hell is this happening

to us i don't care if it kills me

i promise you won't die

swear

it's a sinker of sorts

it's a shitty occasion

we're driving my car from the city

been shaving my knuckles white dry from the walls i've been punching

so where is the ticket

i'll park

you just leg it in

and you haven't cried much or nearly enough

but i'll scream at your chest for as long as i must

til it hears me

do you think it hears me?

call off your dogs

we'll surrender no part of our love to the sun

the skin or the lungs

not today

nor tomorrow

it's no kind of living afraid or unknown let the dead be the dead

let us live and disown all pretending

from here until the car ride home

if i hear another i love you get well from someone we don't know or that i didn't tell

and i swear that i'll show them a vision of hell

it gets tiresome you know

it's always the strangers who poke and they prod

and they drive all that shit deep inside of your blood

if miracles function

then where is our god that's the question i pose

and you haven't changed much or nearly enough

but i scream at your chest for as long as i trust

that it hears me

do you think it hears me?

call off your dogs

we'll surrender no part of our love to the sun

the skin or the lungs

not today

nor tomorrow

it's no kind of living afraid or unknown

let the dead be the dead let us live and disown all pretending

from here until the car ride home

the car ride home

car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home

the car ride home
