about

A dark Marty love song.

lyrics

Hear it's blood red swollen
And I believe you til acid pours from your tongue
Weave your way through this crowd
And I'll look over & south by south west for you

Drinking smoking laughing like I'm not in the room
You were never one to pay me the time
You look so cold put on your coat
And walk out, walk out

I feel the earth melt sideway & slide you on over
Over & into my arms
Stumble outside to wait out in the cold
For you to come, come around

There's no reason for the shadow that falls
On the way I feel you capture me so
In this drink I drown to try & pretend
I'm not weighed down

I'm no good to you if I start making any sense
I'm left alone I think too hard
Freefall, freefall

Bourbon, cocaine, bandaid my foreseen sense of loss
I wait choking over this leash around my throat
