Two days, a motion actor
Two broken strings, a tractor
A groom, a face, a life-filled room
It's a date before a cornea and a wish could be a bad thing
My mouth is just a mush of drool
I'm standing on a bridge
I wink at her from up high
Trout and fish comes as she moves
I want to be like water,
And never need a doctor,
And carve the earth without my tools
All of the things that I relate to well, like authors and painters
Transparent paper dreams that float above me while I sleep
To make the room more natural
So you could die in 'em
Die in 'em, die
The color after sunset
You'd do anything the drink's at
The crush has come just like a willow
He doesn't need a house
There's shoes in every house
There's the drips, the black spots on my pillow
I want to be like water
And slip in through your throat and
Make you feel alive and new
I want to be like water
And never have a doubt
And crack your legs around my boots
All of the things that I relate to well, like authors and painters
Transparent paper dreams that float above me while I sleep
To make the room more natural
So you could die in 'em
Die in 'em, die
And all the dreams that I awake to read like ghostly paintings
And all the things I hate I wish I didn't have to hate
To find a room that's natural
To live on by in 'em
by in 'em, by
For the next part, just go back and forth between C and C, switching with basically
word. If you listen to it, you'll get it.
I don't think you know just what you're doing
You pretend to know exactly all the things you keep on moving
Said, I don't think I know exactly what I'm doing
You pretend to know exactly all the things you keep on moving
When you wake up from your snoozin'
Gonna tell you how to do it my way
Gonna tell you what I'm doin'
Raising knife up in my drum
Anybody's dog is barking
And I can't find a way to stop it
It's a song about the days you spend
Without me at our home
