Golden Birds - Carrier lyrics

You know the look slack jaw eyes wide Working the phantom face a clear white sky Quick blink quick twitch side to side That's me half the time At least half the time You know the face sick flicking eyes Working the slack jaw side to side Quick phantom blink wide phantom stride That's me half the time At least half the time You know the phantom slow weary sigh Working the clear white slack inside That's me half the time At least half the time -- You want to press my gla** Feel your firm new flesh press back Well I was water sugar and you've fallen in Now I wash over you fresh again I am the fish in your hand I am the missing rug I have no use for dry land Here in the hole that I've dug -- My baby carries a thermometer in her purse And strain in her face from always bracing against the worst She says everyone has a secret love affair with a malady So don't take it out on yourself We're s**ling it we're s**ling it honey Sniffing for lions in our headlines and live feeds We're s**ling it we're s**ling it honey With hall-of-mirrors smiles administering our IVs We're s**ling it we're s**ling it honey To the sound of a heartbeat Eyes tongues and dreams glued to the sheen Wooing a malady
