We saw the western coast.

I saw the hospitals.

And nursed the shoreline like a wound.

Reports of lover's tryst.

Were neither clear nor descript.

We kept it safe and slow,

The quiet things that no one ever knows.

So keep the blood in your head.

And keep your feet on the ground.

If today's the day I gets tired,

Then today's the day we drop out.

Gave up my body and bed,

All for an empty hotel.

Wasting my words on lower cases and capitals.x2

I contemplate the day we wed.

Your friends are boring me to death.

Your veil is ruined in the rain.

By then it's you I can do without.

There's nothing new to talk about.

And though our kids are blessed,

Their parents let them shoulder all the blame.

So keep the blood in your head.

And keep your feet on the ground.

If today's the day I gets tired,

Then today's the day we drop out.

Gave up my body and bed,

All for an empty hotel.

Wasting my words on lower cases and capitals. 2x

I lie for only you.

And I lie well... Hallelujah. 3x

(Collide)

So keep the blood in your head.

And keep your feet on the ground.

If today's the day I gets tired,

Then today's the day we drop out.

Gave up my body and bed,

All for an empty hotel.

Wasting my words on lower cases and capitals.
