New Creatures

The drink is crawling down my throat again
I held your heart inside my coat and then
Cigarettes and cherry lozenges
Atop the covers while you're sleeping in

Is there anyone home?
Is there anyone home?
Is there anyone home?

I apologize, but you complain the most
Reacting to the things that you don't know
But this is how the story always goes
Sit back, relax, and just enjoy the show

The sun is drowning in the pool again
I wear your heart around my throat for when
I miss your touch—I still can taste your skin
Familiar death, I feel it sinking in

Is there anyone home?
Is there anyone home?
Is there anyone home?

I apologize, but you complain the most
Reacting to the things that you don't know
But this is how the story always goes
Sit back, relax, and just enjoy the show

I apologize, but you complain the most
Reacting to the things that you don't know
But this is how the story always goes
Sit back, relax, and just enjoy the show
