Skeleton Dance

Shit that you said on repeat in my head China cabinet busted again Ends that won't meet when they're raisin' the rent Pickin' up teeth off the pavement Broken like bread Shirts that don't fit Growin' mold in the basement Digging holes for dying hopes Throwin' sticks at glass Coke bottles Losin' my grip in the rat race I can't recall in the first place What was it I was aiming for? In a canyon left undone Another tape another rerun If this is all you know If this is all you know Could you believe for better? If this is all you know Scratchin' my back and I'll get yours Keepin' a tab Tracking the score You versus me Skeleton dance Keepin' the peace Wringing my hands I don't ask much of you anymore A play of indifference Sore to the touch Tearing up threads on the arm of the couch Your voice burns the sides of your mouth Boots click click clickin' around What was it we were aiming for? If this is all you know If this is all you know Could you believe for better? If this is all you know If this is all you know If this is all you know Could you believe for better? If this is all you know
