Preservation Lyrics
[Verse 1]
That night he hurt you bad
In that green, pastel
Summer dress
You'd die alone with the land
A hollow head in its hands
But everybody does that
But with particular scorn
In polyurethane form
Freeze dried, stuff to the brim
[Chorus](x3)
Preservation
[Verse 2]
Hide in our hideous masks
Your daddy's shitty
Shake grass
I told you I couldn't see it
A monument of pills
Grocery lists, telephone bills
Pamphlets & dollar store trinkets
[Chorus](x7)
Preservation
[Bridge]
But if that was how you put
It, and if you ever willed it
I would embroider you
In disaffected kisses, in

Bleach reticent sunsets
Soldered animal glue
[Verse 3]
A hand too heavy to hold
Lips that won't
Do what they're told
How do we ever begin it?
[Chorus](x3)
Preservation
[Outro](x12)
Preservation
(How do we grow old? How do we grow old?)
