Like An Animal

Glove

One mile in the air that's where she lives


Her body looks so thin and pink and small


Dropping eggs from nervous shaking hands


And swallowing her fingers as they fall





Two people dance on the edge


Three of us push them away


There's nowhere to go


We're all in this


But nothing can hurt us at all





Fight her all you want you'll never win


Couldn't we just once leave her in bed


Let the dry air cut her happy throat


Hide her heart and lose her happy head





First I was a murderer then I was a saint


Now I live on stolen time


Twist and run like paint


Like an animal





Tuesday in the sun


Nothing could be worse


Not now not ever not anymore...
