Incurable Sun Impossible morning Boardwalk seagulls Diving to their death Invisible chalk Preserving your memory
What would it take To get you to see me? Learned a million ways To put up with less Well I know that silver tide Changes under a magnet But could that ocean floor Still be right where we left it?
Beauty deranged Like a green snake crossing Or how oil spilled in water Makes color appear Or the fear that I feel When you're singing right to me
Undressing, we laugh At our pale naked bodies And the closer you get to me All the farther you feel Gotta lay that secret bare Or you'll watch it turn tragic Maybe underneath that veil Is truth as we found it
Thirty plastic swans Circling the lake The cruelty that you are And the fool that I make Blind loyalty betrays you Like yellow hills are gonna burn You and I might never learn
You can scale the Great Wall But you can't turn to face me I see those patterns printed all Over myself too But I keep pushing that boulder Uphill till something moves And I thought we were getting older But you're right where I left you
