Twin Size Mattress
(专辑: Talon Of The Hawk - 2013)
This is for the
lions living in the
wiry broke down frames of my friends bodies When the
flood water comes, it ain't gonna be clear. It's gonna look like mud But I
will help you swim I
will help you swim I'm gonna help you swim This is for the
snakes and the
people they bite For the
friends I've made; for the
sleepless nights For the
warning signs I've completely ignored There's an amount to take, reasons to take more It's no big surprise you turned out this way When they close their eyes and prayed you would change And they cut your hair, and sent you away You stopped by my house the
night you escaped With tears in my eyes, I
begged you to stay You said, "Hey man, I
love you but no fucking way" I'm sure that we could find something for you to do on stage Maybe shake a
tambourine or when I
sing, you sing harmonies This is for the
lake that me and my friends swim in, naked and dumb on a
drunken night And it should've felt good but I
can hear the
Jaws theme song on repeat in the
back of my mind Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the
face There are lessons to be learned, consequences for all the
stupid things I
say And it is no big surprise you turned out this way The
spark in your eyes, The
look on your face I
will not be late I'm sure we could find something for you to do on stage Maybe shake a
tambourine or when I
sing you sing harmonies I
wanna contribute to the
chaos I
don't wanna watch and then complain 'Cause I
am through finding blame That is the
decision that I
have made She hopes I'm cursed forever to Sleep on a
twin-sized mattress In somebody's attic or basement my whole life Never graduating up in size to add another And my nightmares will have nightmares every night Oh, every night. Every night
