Of Gargoyles

Ethical burns Cool in the shame A license to love gives me permission to hate I lay to rest a long Played out, dragged on Dulled down charade that's lost it's edge Carry on my lovely widow Coma-tosed by all your pillows If only, I understand that you don't want to be lonely So I quit counting all the tears that you owe me I finally buried all our bruises below me And feel a burning building bust that I don't mind a little It's all peripheral I'm digging every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing I'm digging every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Nevermind, we can change everything if you want God knows his lows won't hurt you And my religion says that we've been living well Evermore? I dunno. We can be flexible Just tap toes my rambling prose Instead of sitting there grieving Cause all meaning is leaving I'd say I've been there before, but you'd never believe me It was the devil himself singing out of a hearse Well, I could barely bare his chorus but the verses made it worse And if you listen real close a subliminal note said "I'm struggling, too you know? I've got your habits to watch, your enemies to save I've gotta dig your dirty secrets a dirty little grave And if you thread my hello, it makes a mellow moan." Ever since, lord I see gargoyles on everything They're cracking as they're laughing While they're sitting right in front of me And stroking the stones meant for breaking our bones Always breaking our bones, making a mess of our homes A little bomb little calm looking face as it drops A little dreary getting teary over graduation pop songs Long as it's the Guinness World Book of Frustration See the every bit of genius in your every situation Digging every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Digging every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing Every little thing
