Sleeping Lessons

The Shins

Go without 'Til the need seeps in You're low, anymore Collecting your novel petals for the stem And glow Glow Melt and flow You disarrayed your the fragile fray Spill it out on the ragged floor A thousand different versions of yourself And if the old guard still offend They got nothing left on which you depend So enlist every ounce Of your bright blood And off with their heads Jump from the hook You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise See, those unrepenting buzzards want your life And they got no right As sure as you have eyes They got no right Just put yourself in my new shoes And see that I do what I do Because the old guard still offend (their pudgy hearts and shiny hands) They got nothing left on which we depend So enlist every ounce Of your bright blood And off with their heads Jump from the hook You're not obliged To swallow anything you despise That you despise That you despise That you despise That you despise
