Perfecting Loneliness Lyrics
Sunset panic on the street,
sugar and lightbulbs,
the milk of kindness is behind us now.
With all those stones in your coat,
did you think I wouldn't know?
The teat leaves of trashed streets,
dirty needlesand sweets.
Zero to heaven in seven,
a lifetime,
a nanosecond.
All the sand in your glass
is going by so fast.
The radio is playing our tune.
I love it, could you turn it down?
The thought of you crying in my room;
I miss you, could you come around
sometime?
When the nigh comes down,
the world becomes a room
under the microscope
with a labcoat and glue.
I'm fixing this hole
with everything I knew.
The music is making my head split.
I love it, could you turn it off?
The thought of you is tearing me in two.
I miss you, could you come around
sometime?
Sometime?
This list is what went right;
your name is written twice.
We live like astronauts
and our missions never cross.
The stakes are high,
we're standing by.
There used to be a hundred ways to put my arms around you;
Everyone one seemed new,
natural and true,
perfecting lonliness
'til nothing's holding us.
Consider Earth:
we could be the first.
