Trace that contrail
Across the motionless sea
Electrified
By the turn of a key
Shades move in the night
I give life to rusted dreams
There's nothing left to say
Some flowers wither and that's okay
Not ready to close that door
Throw a carpet on the red soaked into the floor
With vitriol caked on rouge decor
Every crack and tear and cut and score
I hold one
Last reprieve for love divesting
All the hurt feelings swept under the rug
The sick and sorry craving for their adoration
And they'll all say its better
Just to live and let live
And they'll all say its better
To eat knives and to forgive
No change in opinion
Would have us on the same side
No heartfelt confession
Would have me change my mind
This pity parading is
Affirmation enough
The guilty conscience needs no accuser
Agitations come forth
The sundering
Of our shackle laid to rest
Blood type AB positive
(Take)
You stupid leech
I hold one
Last breath and forfeit
All the hurt feelings swept under the rug
The sick and sorry craving for their adoration
And they'll all say it's better
Just to live and let live
And they'll all say it's better
