[Verse 1]
Hello, stranger
You remind me of someone, a jangling lust
Pouncing on a sliver
Of a dusty pool of light
Your fire's hue
Is a maraschino cherry
A room-temperature eye
Backlit by the bar
Your tongue a chewed straw, you're all period blood and soundcheck blues
Both armpits ripped and a lucky horseshoe pinball bruise
[Verse 2]
You're not quite in proportion
So you've stayed in motion
Ever since your longing outgrew you
Stepping and re-stepping until it is a run
Over and over, on the same platform from where you begun
Like someday this one-horse town
Will pull itself out of the station just to follow you around
You're the real destination
[Verse 3]
On a boomerang counter
You crash the keys, "Coffee, please"
A word of advice, from here in the daylight
Stay off the high road, it's a sneering code
It's a lazy border boundary to "I don't wanna know"
And we never will
Trash like us
We can't even spell
But we're impossible to kill
Just self-destruct, closing time never comes
Closing time never comes
[Verse 4]
You love boys and guitars and girls and trucks
The way you move fills me with envy and wonder
You somehow live free of men's eyes?
Even with a bell on your collar, they don't find or define you
Slip that noose in an arc so whip-sleek and steady
You fill me with envy and wonder already
Somewhere between saying and screaming, you chime
[Verse 5]
"Oh, I, I'm going to live a real life
With blood and dirt and the subway for dessert
'Cause there's a feeling I've never met
And if it's gonna eat me alive, or use me for its fuse
I might as well walk it home in time for tomorrow"
Might as well walk it home in time for tomorrow
[Verse 6]
Most of all I love you
Because you don't pretend it doesn't hurt
Waiting for the world to catch up
And see you for your worth
As more than just a neutral tarp to compliment the gleam
Of some glossy martyr's meat?
As a contrast high? A graphic feast?
Your compact in the gutter
Mingling with the slurry of cigarettes and needles
As more than a housewife, a has-been, or just somebody's lover
A housewife, a has-been, or just somebody's lover
A housewife, a has-been, or just somebody's lover
Closing time never comes
Closing time never comes
[Outro]
Oh, I, I wanna live a real life
With blood and dirt and the subway for dessert and more
So let's tattoo the morning paper to their driveways in our gore
There's a feeling that I have never met
And if it eats us alive
We can still be on time
For tomorrow
