Texas

My love has gone away

Packed up her bags and then boarded that plane

I guess at the time

I figured you would wait

Two things: leaky breath, bitter taste

Tripped out for six hundred years

Who would've thought that we'd make it this year?

In a way it makes sense that you'd die and reappear

As a fly I'll keep swatting for years

Calm down and pour me a drink

Pretty small town and the gossip repeats

I took off my clothes

You sat on the bed next to me

My heart is pumping my blood

Your heart's not beating at all

In a way it makes sense that it isn't

It just never was

Right now I'm a sinful exchange

Once done, unlivable shame

And I should've known when I took the blame

Sweat and shame fire this flame

Please God don't take him too

Take me, a replicant fool

Lost a gear, now a heart of moon

She's a kid, I'm a fool

Please son, where is your faith?

Take off your bushes, let fire to your pain

You feel love come, then it's gone

Let it scatter, let it stain

And while I promise you'll see

Whole life, not the blemish

Or burns that you keep on your feet

I am a tower that is soaked to the core

Heavier now than it's gotten before

Something inside of me needs more and more

Sooner than later or never no more

Sooner than later or never no more
