lyrics

Under a peaceful light I spoke words silent to you. Your presence smiled back, I know you knew. It's not a sacrifice, but the right thing to do. And I'll hold your hand for life, knowing I will see you soon. And I'll see you soon. Breathe deep, my friend. Careful with the glass potion of mine and mom and god. Toecutter, walk on home, and put away your knives. Expense makes sense when mind is clear, enjoyment at this price shops for fear and I'm taking my time. What's this rush in killing us? I'm coming with you if you're going down. Because I love your breath, this place gives us more. Will we ever be alone in a place to grow? Right here, right now, a simple strength of lifting scars of mine and mom's an gods'. Young boy, put that down, it's a dynamite candy cane. If I break then I must have a crack, torture and death-food I'm staying away from that. What's this rush in killing us? I'm killing too, if you're going down. Because I love your breath, this place gives us so much more. Will we ever be alone in a place to grow? I'm taking it easy, I'm taking it easy for all us sinners.

Too loud for the New Brunswick basements, too stupid to make the big-time.
