Skeleton Key

(专辑： Collapser - 2009)

Half asleep with the sun coming up out east
We're driving down Garfield Ave when you said a strange and significant thing:
I can remember the words "this was, a beautiful night
It won't ever happen this way again"

No my dear, nothing much grows around here
We carry our roots with us, a couple of weeds, pulled up

Misguided girl you'll be the heroine of my book
The plot is the course we took
The setting can't be no where else in the world
And the story opens up with you
Your broken dreams and cheap perfume

You're on a city bus, the rain it falls
Your makeup bleeds, the wind it howls
I stumble on from Uptown bars
I guess that's all I've got so far
But at the end, I don't know how
You save me and you save yourself

It ends so soon, the night and the fading moon
I put my hand inside yours

The city looks strange and significant
Know these streets, the place where I'll live and die
Resigned to that fact but
I'm hoping it happens this way again
Fall asleep to the radio
Try to keep what I got from you
Hard to do in these dreary days
