Rilo Kiley - Absense of God lyrics

Your rating:

The absence of God will bring you comfort, baby 

And planning's for the poor so let's pretend that we're rich 

And I'm not my body or how I choose to destroy it 

Folk singers sing songs for the working, baby 



We're just recreation for all those doctors and lawyers 

There's no relief for the bleeding heart 

'Cause they'll be losing bodies tonight 



And Rob says you love, love, love and then you die 

I've watched him while sleeping and seen him crying with closed eyes 

And you're not happy but you're funny and I'm tripping over my joy 

But I just keep on getting up again 



We could be daytime drunks if we wanted 

We'd never get anything done that way baby 

And we'd still be ruled by our dueling perspectives 

And I'm not my perspective 

Or the lies I'll tell you every time 



And Morgan says, maybe love won't let you down 

All of your failures are training grounds 

And just as your back's turned you'll be surprised she says 

As your solitude subsides 



And Mike I'll teach you how to swim 

If you turn the bad in me into good again 



And I say there's trouble 

When everything is fine 

The need to destroy things 

Creeps up on me every time 

Just as love's silhouette appears 

I close my eyes and disappear tonight 



And something's got to change 

'Cause our love's the slowest moving train
