Lyndsay Thornton - Side B lyrics

[Verse 1] Our voices joined in a high note now over Breathless we fall Caught in the hanging cords now silent Grabbed my hand in the nausea [Chorus] I made a bed out of irony lie with me In my broken bones Deliberated cheek to cheek In the final blow [Verse 2] I laid down in the quivering gra** Your legs so frail that you crawl after your convictions My skin begins to pale in the dark I grab your hand in the nausea [Chorus] I made a bed out of irony lie with me In my broken bones Deliberated cheek to cheek In the final blow —— (2:54) —— [Verse 1] You grow younger Pulling my future like a toy train Afraid of the dark In a hotel room you sleep and lay [Hook] You leave your dedication On the table and Along with her tip Here I am back peddling [Verse 2] You keep certain knickknacks there Your memory but rarely takes them out Necessity is a large pie And patriarchy bends down to give you a piece The game becomes familiar but your not So unpredictably winded back peddling —— (5:45) —— [Verse 1] Are you happy Now that you know Are you sorry I was terrified to leave Five a.m. and freezing She's sleeping in her clothes I fell into a gypsy cab and I could do the math [Chorus] If you take a lover Will you tell me when it happens Because its worse to imagine it [Verse 2] A little something in the chocolate Let me call up an old friend Enough with the taxman records Leave a man alone He'll get lost in his own home [Chorus] If you take a lover Will you tell me when it happens Because its worse to imagine it Worse to imagine —— (8:28) —— [Verse 1] Baby are you crying Shaking and alone Afraid to lose the things That mean the most [Verse 2] Weightless with arms wide open Miles from Los Angeles coast You've got a violent temp You come home and we'll try to start A new life and pull the sadness up and off of us And i can be better to you A ghost in the the hotel ballroom —— (10:55) —— [Verse 1] Here I lie in the absence Of her last breath Hold my disappointment to my chest The nightmare begins Then settles in to the floorboards The city cries and I stumble blindly To save my last goodbye [Verse 2] At the hollow below her call upon I listen in the morning for a voice I've known The evening falls over my body like Guiltiness her memory dies And I stumble blindly to save my last goodbye
