Don't go to bed if you know that something's waiting
To grab you in the night and throttle hope from your heart
Don't close your eyes if the ills are fornicating
And conceiving of an evil to break you from the start
No, stay and play with me
We'll lock it down and sleep outside
Our heads on shoulders
Okay? That's how it be
That's what our love is
And will hold us til we're older
Don't go indoors if the walls that are waiting
Have a way of hindering healing laughter in your chest
And don't try to speak any words of how you're hating
When the song of how you're loving is always best
No, stay and play with me
We'll lock it down and sleep outside
Our heads on shoulders
Okay? That's how it be
That's what our love is
And will hold us til we're older
I believe these are end times
Wouldn't it be best to be together then?
The smell of your box on my mustache
Or a crossword on our mind
