thinking about some underrated lines from love run
but our voices collide with each howl of the tide // singing all hell and it's fire waits for us
and our muscles that's are waltzing // and our shadows that are bold sing // come rip up the flesh of my fears
my entire life it's running away too fast, watching everyone I've ever loved walk past // never really quite getting the knack of knowing no one will not ever come back for you
you're the one who asked me if i'm feeling okay // I said i'm fine // it's just a sitting down in the shower day
love does not exist here // in this garden there's no feeling // and you say the words so often that I barely know the meaning
god made all man in his image // honey, i'm no man // i'm what's left when children go to war
the cracks you made, I filled with mortar // a broken pot can still hold water
it's like all the wallpaper inside my heart // is slowly, slowly peeling off // and i'm showing all the stains and things // they wrote on the walls before
run from all you know that's coming // run to show that love's worth running to
let foul men band and heed your hum // for that ancient hymn you heard me strumming // is nought but fumble-falls and guns and tumbleweeds, love run // it's nought that rum won't solve // though some would harm you, none, not one, no none // will raise to you a hand nor thumb // not while by you I stand and hum
