Wissahickon

I almost lost your hair tie when I jumped into the Wissahickon Creek

You caught me at a bad time and I hope you can forgive me

These days I can't explain myself to you or anybody else

These days I hardly recall anything I've ever felt

I'm stepping out

I'm breaking down

I think your sister saw me walk on water now

I hear the noise

But fear the sound

Can you finally hear me now

It's like a funeral procession driving through a minefield

Come on, baby, take your time

It's the fact that my heartbeat will one day retreat

Until it's just that thin flat line

Oh, silent assassin, love is just an action

Put me down nice and slow

Oh, violent creature, will you be my teacher

Or are you just my holy ghost

I'm stepping out

I'm breaking down

I think your sister saw me walk on water now

I hear the noise

But fear the sound

Can you finally hear me now

Now I'm running back

There's no point to this

Like our zodiacs

You'll blame Aquarius

We built it up

Then burned it down

Can you finally hear me now

Oh, nonbeliever, show me what I've been missing now

Oh, nonbeliever, show me the world that cast you out

Violent things

Cheap wedding rings

A well planned verse that nobody sings

I'm stepping out

I'm breaking down

I think your sister saw me walk on water now

I hear the noise

But fear the sound

Can you finally hear me now

Now I'm running back

There's no point to this

Like our zodiacs

You'll blame Aquarius

We built it up

Then burned it down

Can you finally hear me now
