Lyrics The Lawrence Arms

The Lawrence Arms

Navigating The Windward Passage

Drinking, death wish nights can't save this

Glass-eyed, slack-jaws scream from safe homes

I've got it wrong time and again, song after song

You've got answers, killing to please, swooning disasters

So inventory me, drop me into your fishbowl

I'm dying to breathe through your tight pigeon hole

A dead man in dead dreams

When I'm gone you won't miss me, you're dying to fist me

Out of the closet and into the fire

Out of these dumb little quips that inspire

Outright outrage enrages you now

You're lifeless and sticky, kicking at dead cows

Fuck your sound

One shot, all wrong, one lie, all gone

Cry for yourselves, I'll die with my own help

These words are mine, this grave that we share time after time

Chokes my life out, you ask yourselves what I'm crying about

These tears that are falling are wetting deaf ears

You cry for your protests, and say I don't care

I couldn't care less, I don't answer to you

I couldn't care less if you're repulsed through and through

A dead man in dead dreams

When I'm gone you won't miss me, you're dying to fist me

Out of the closet and into the fire

Out of these dumb little quips that inspire

Outright outrage enrages you now

You're lifeless and sticky, kicking at dead cows

Fuck your sound

When it's all said and done

Did you really think that you were the only one?

You were here before you, you'll be here when you're gone

Another lemming humming protest songs

Out of the closet and into the fire

Out of these dumb little quips that inspire

Outright outrage enrages you now

You're lifeless and sticky, kicking at dead cows

Fuck your sound
