The Long Bright Dark Songtext
von Interpersonal

Think I saw you in a dream
A trip way back to seventeen
I know you think that you look so cool
But I think you look serpentine
With your speech still slurred, tripping over your cup
Wanna be a big man but you′re fucking it up
Caught a couple nice birds and you think you're a king
Yeah, you think that you′re a poet, so you never shut up
Only took one punch and you lost all your teeth
And a brand-new lord's taking over your fief
Spent a decade in the water, still don't know how to swim
Know you think that I′m a liar, but I know where you′ve been

Say goodbye to the inside
Say goodbye to the throne
You've got a cancer in the core of your bones
Now your heart is a landslide
It′s on the tip of your tongue
No rinsing that thing off, just buy a new one


Brother of mine
You have to pull the leeches
From the back of your mind
You might just be fine
I can't say the same for
The ones who took the sharp end
Of the sword in your hand
Hope you understand

You′re sick
Alone
Here's how you made your home
Slow down
Resign
Cause there′s no pill for time

A spider in your bed
A nest made on the floor
A splint in both your shins
What do you suffer for?
There's blood right on your hands
We caught you in the sun
You're smaller than your sins
Just tell us that you′re done


Say goodbye to the inside
Say goodbye to the throne
You′ve got a cancer in the core of your bones
Now your heart is a landslide
It's on the tip of your tongue
No rinsing that thing off, just buy a new one
Think you′re done? Then you're dreaming
You rise and set with the sun
So, when you finish, start again at the gun
