Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer [Verse 2: Cosmosis] Wrote flowery poems about love and never meant it Something like cautious alchemy without any incentive Made amends and mended fences, get your last request in Apprentice heartbreaker with no takers and a guest list Goaded into symbolic goats and rolled with it Sit comatose, gloat, grope and toast us kids Glasses up to gonads, old fads and bogus tits Hokey convos that would go like this: Peachy key, some keystone lite and greenery It'll be alright, though it seems to be That you clean up nice, but then it's nice to leave I felt but don't feel and it frightens me Lightning won't strike twice, got scalded two times Anything for the right price, can't rub together two dimes Aesop's fable table it and watch your facial tics I'll give away this label all we ever do is play with it [Hook: Justin Vernon] And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And in the morning I'll be with you But it will be a different kind Cause I'll be holding all the tickets And you'll be owning all the fines [Verse 3: Cosmosis] You might have broke me Shot me in the playing card heart, Annie Oakley Choking on dopamine, blowing steam and decoding these Sideways glances that you like to throw me, it's O.D I promise you're not just another piece of ass If I wanted I'd beat off in the bushes behind the beaten path Please relax, this road is where it's best to run I turned the other cheek and you just slapped me on the second one I get you're still attached to the ex, I'm cross It's like heaven's crushed, or not The best part's I brushed it off without a second though I got it, I'm a godless heathen a tangled smile off the deep-end This weekend we can be whatever kind of pretend, or pretense That we want, breath God release heck smoke weed less Aretha with a wreath of posies around her pretty neck Give me sex I'll be back in a sec, just a passionless wreck The fucking best, cap it at fresh, captain of vessels Meddled a vassal without a castle to bow down and ascend to Yes boo, I meant you, because you make this heart stiffer It's a star slinger, bartender who still chokes on his hard liquor Nope, I'm none of those things I'm posing but it's true Got a gold in my pocket that I don't mean to give you Bitch, who do you think you are? Can't buy new clothes just to hide those scars Lupe said build a roof just to hide those stars And I could have found hope, could have found heart Now I can't take it back to the start (And I want to take it back to the start) [Outro: Birdy] Come on skinny love just last the year Pour a little salt we were never here My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
