A lot of good it does, ducking down Closer than you've ever been To your own goddamned toes And the boat comes down Sand and rock Bursting upward Makes the sound of a thousand turmoils This is something that you don't notice Until that thing is gone And I will listen to you now And if I tore my own tongue out I think I might taste it still So I will listen to you now So what, you're walking away? Don't make me say it again Or I'll come down With the bugs, the snakes, and the rain Yeah, I will make it a real hurricane
You will know my color This is something that you don't notice Until that thing is gone And I will listen to you now And if I tore my own tongue out I think I might taste it still So I will listen to you now Would you come in from the rain? I saw buildings coming down I can board up your window pane But we both know we're gonna drown This is something that you don't notice Until that thing is gone And I will listen to you now And I done tore my own tongue out And I think I can taste it still So I will listen to you now
