The Attrition

The sun came up high, And the barrels were dry, So we made for the bedroom, Then we blacked out. You knew I was high, From my dead vacant eyes, As we made for the bedroom, Then we blacked out. Baby living isn't easy, (Baby love will free us all) The attrition wore us down, (That somber sound) I tried to breathe and I am wheezing, (The air is thick and hot and dry) I hope your lost turns into found. The long dark sleep will see us through. Baby give me some perspective, (I take a step back and observe) The hyper-real is our right now, (We ran aground) I need to try and be selective, (As I stand I see the past) I tried to swim and then I drowned. What's old is sold and can't be saved. The sun came up high, And the barrels were dry, So we made for the bedroom, Then we blacked out. You knew I was high, From my dead vacant eyes, As we made for the bedroom, Then we blacked out. Then we blacked out. Then we blacked out.
