We burn through the money and take off our gloves
We cut up our eyes on the razor of love
I can't understand half the things that you can
But I love you

My face is a house stuck in hopeless repair
Your youth took a hike from your beautiful hair
But I wanna grow old with you
I didn't lie when I told you I love you

So you reach for the past but it melts like the snow
Damn decisions they follow you everywhere that you go
You made your mistakes there's no pill left to take
Just some water

All these pretty little little things I could make with my hands
All the cheap little notes I could have wrote for the band
Now you're asking me why I left it to die
Because I want you

All that is new is tired and old again
What was light is freezing cold again
Do you remember when a kiss was a hundred shocks to the spine?
And skin was the doorway to the carnal divine?
When the shackles of love had yet to decide
The fate of the fools who follow the blind?

You mistake my silence for some kind of doubt
When you lose your teeth may it please shut your mouth?
There may come a day when there's nothing I'd say
But I love you

The evening is toast and restless and board
And the kids are medieval and we are not the lords
But I cannot imagine if we didn't have them
I love you
