Accidental Seabirds - Pillows Lyrics
what did you take for lunch,and what did it take from you?There is a smell now where your smile wasand there is a hell now where your eyes once were cloudless, fearlessyou’re shaking off the dust that’s piled up youit didn’t take long, did it?and it didn’t hurt at all when you hit it until you faded outat least you made it out, now you can godream like it’s the last timewe will ever speak each others’ namesI know you feel fine now that real lifeholds a steel spike to your neckand you’ll see the shine if you wake in timeYou’re shaving off the rust that grows back every daythe city is gray, even the ceilingand it isn’t rare to find you kneeling next to porcelain when the moon diesyou try to stop the spins from trying to stop youwell they are a broad blade of nauseaand trust me the only cure will cost you teeth & tapeworm(chorus)& before you know it there’ll be nothing leftIt’s a long walk. are these just growing pains?or a backdrop to life’s consuming flame?swing high, the sky comprised of glass & goalsbetween which you go(chorus)now that real life is full of fake names, broken frames, fixed games & other wonderful things
