Targets

Targets on the back of every god I've ever left

Anger, hope, and gratefulness

Whiplash from the crash of every car I've ever wrecked

Muscles know what hearts forget

Targets on the back of every girl I've ever loved

Trust and sex and intimacy

Flashbacks from the past that I swept beneath the rug

It comes back, believe you me

Bath water in wineskins

Put the baby in the basket

Oh I'm torching these straw men

But I'm takin my targets

Targets on the back of every friend I've ever lost

Safety, love, camaraderie

Touching up the paint on every line I've double-crossed

It's the only way to see

Bath water in wineskins

Put the baby in the basket

Oh I'm torching these straw men

But I'm takin my targets

You were the aim but not the source

You don't get it all in the divorce

You can't bear the weight of all my love

The sweet ricochet of my own voice from above

Bath water in wineskins

Put the baby in the basket

Oh I'm torching these straw men

But I'm takin my targets
