“Time comes in particles” someone once said and this is what I remember, this is how my brain works

You got all the facts and I got all the useless details

If I believe in anything I'd pray to gods of injuries to stay out of our lives, except in times like these

I put ships on rails, we put ourselves on trains, you put your trust into the world, I put my hand where it's safe

My words form knots, your words form figure eights

I'd like to multiply horizons from the battlefields to the stage



Who will we be the next time we meet?

With our cracked cuticles and our sharp teeth

All things hidden in the mouth of the wolverine

All things playful and mean



You won't become numb, I won't stay the same

If I try hard enough I can cry paper planes

We'll connect the dots in the history books and you'll see the bigger picture, I'll shrink down the greater good

We keep our fingers crossed all the way through the evening news

I promise ankle anthems sitting drunk on the kitchen floor

So let's bite our lips and grab our wrists and sing

I think a storm is moving in

So watch out for our favorite apocalypse



Who will we be the next time we meet?

With our cracked cuticles and our sharp teeth

All things hidden in the mouth of the wolverine

All things hidden and mean



Can you do me a favor?

Can you do me a favor?

Can you give me one cent for everything that doesn't make sense?

Can you do me a favor?

I could be a rich woman by now
