lyrics

kiss the fingers that will touch the light
so the light touches them clean
down to the leaden marrow,
spine like flares
that we share
with our heavy eyes (x3)

pay your tiny tributes
to your friends (your friends! your friends!)
if they are myths, call them myths
if they are friends, call them
pay attention

the argument of lawyers and birds
your feet on the stairs

you say we never pay for it all
but we pay for it all, we pay for it all

i said i'd move before the library got built
and then the library got built
IT'S STUPEFYING
stand still! stand still!

if i'm gonna be fine, i'd better be fine
if i'm gonna be mad, i'd better be mad

there is no smile that breaks my teeth
there is no sunset but the city
there is no smile that breaks my teeth
there is no sunset but the city goes red
(redder than you'd believe)

no. this has nothing to do with me.
this has nothing to do with me. no.

no. this has nothing to do with me.
this has nothing to do with me. no.
