He lit your world on fire and then he ran
And as it all crashed down
We counted out again
He lit your world on fire and then he ran
It went 1, 2, 3, 4, 14
Cream City come and save me
I’ve been waiting on these gifts
Cream City come and save me
I’ve been praying on these gifts
You lit your face on fire and you fell
And as you hit the ground
You swore you’d never tell
You lit your face on fire and you fell
You fell 1, 2, 3, 4, 14
There is strength in what we see
There is hope in what we know
And you know pain
Yeah, you know pain
But I know you
And I love you

Turtlenecks over Nazi tattoos
I’m teaching her those well-worn suburban blues
Rocky’s down in the parking lot
Kids get hurt when kids get hot
Kids get hurt when kids get hot
There’s a car outside
There’s a car outside
But I don’t think you want to take that ride
Quarters up for one last stand
Fresh red blood on a bright white Mustang
Sleeper cell boys are playing dumb
Hoping that that's not blood but cum
There’s a car outside
There’s a car outside
But I don’t think you want to take that ride
We were all trying to explode
Some of us succeeded, Martyrs for all seasons
Some of us succeeded, Martyrs for no reason
Smoke the ashes (x2) and say goodnight
Goodbye

This I.V.
Did nothing for me
I drank it down
To make your shaking stop
This I.V.
Did nothing for me
I drank it down
To make your shaking stop
I shaved my head out of sympathy
Cause I know what it did to me
I shaved my head out of sympathy
Cause I know what it did to me
I fought hard
You fought more
I fell far
You loved more
If it stands, it stands with me
If it falls, it falls all around me
While I mouth my Middle-Age mantra:
Esther, you can beat this
Esther, you can win this
Esther, you can beat this
Esther, you can win this
As I told you before it was more than just a flesh wound
As I told you before it was more than just a pin prick
Let’s compare those scars
Let’s reclaim what’s ours
Let’s compare what’s ours
Let’s reclaim those scars
Let’s take it back

I’ve been having that dead dog dream again
Bloated corpses on rooftops in New Haven
But the Panthers they left town
And the junk it stuck around
It accumulates under your thumb
A comb
A tomb
A box inside your room
Filled with triggers and rings
And all sorts of dreadful things
But the cobra was a Hustler
There was no ceremony, just this song
And one last hope for one last sing along
But it ends the same way every time
It ends the same way every time
I leave
You die
I leave
You die

He taped it to his chest
She held it to her heart
It was spirit over body
It was spirit over body
Trade a kingdom for a Quaalude
Find a hostage who is in that mood
You will always make lists
And I will bruise
Now it’s hangover sweaters
Lord, for bitter drug weather
It reeks of Pledge and semen
And something to believe in
What do you believe in? Love (?)
You’re begetting the bloodletting
But there’s one thing you’re forgetting
The faces they will change
But the names they stay the same

Leaving town in the shade of black light
No one to tell her that it's all alright
The night you left, she made your clothes into her bed
How can you wear those clothes again?
The time you spent to spend that time
The time you spent to lose that time
The time you spent to waste that time
The time you spent to find that time
There is no shot
There is no cure
There's just a chance
To rewrite
To rewrite your world
The time you spent to spend that time
The time you spent to lose that time
The time you spent to waste that time
The time you spent to find that time
Trenton Makes, the world it takes
I'm living with these lapsing-Catholic shakes
I live for you
You live for me
That is our legacy
This is our life
This is our love
