Kissing the Lipless

Called to see if your back was still aligned And your sheets were growing grass out of the corners of your bed But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves That has too much to do with me And secretly I want to bury in the yard The grey remains of a friendship scarred You told us of your new life there You've got someone coming 'round Gluing tinsel to your crown He's got you talking pretty loud Berate, remember your ailing heart and your criminal eyes You say you're still in love And it's true what can be done It's hard to leave all these moments behind Called to see if your back is still aligned And your sheets are growing grass out of the corners of your bed And you've got too much to wear on your sleeves It's too much to do with me And secretly I want to bury in the yard The grey remains of a friendship scarred You tested your medal of doe's skin and petals Kissing the lipless and bleed all the sweetness away --- Kissing the Lipless - The Shins
