TV on the Radio

Playhouses

I said

Playhouses

swept away by the river now

confound me

sound me out now

Like a crayon in your hand

and whos little girl are you now

Oh, I'd ask for this dance

but I know you play like you don't know

what your coarse smile exposes

a recent memory of when we shit off in a

and I know the woman shining down

so for who?

so for who?

Beneath the cigarrettes and sugar shit of alchol breath

I can taste the ocean on your tongue

remember when we sat on the side walk

of your cold block

against the wall

under the stars

talking about love meaning

Well, I wasn't dreaming

I meant every word

just to know your demons

do you know mine, babe?

are we wastin time, babe?

playhouses on dead life (haunted life)

broken spirits

just trying to get high

yeah we chose these cards

but the weather changed

and the river froze and went it thawed

it was runnin backwards and dry now

I suppose it's appropriate to cry now

oh wasted time

and naked lies

still get wasted sometimes
