Live On In The Dark - Slobberbone[00:00:00]
Once you eyes they shone like flashlights [00:00:19]
Fountains of clarity[00:00:22]
And the most alkaline of batteries were you and me[00:00:25]
Free of failure flicker or fade[00:00:32]
Yeah but depending[00:00:35]
Where you're from too much daylight can seem like an oddity[00:00:36]
And devotion is a commodity [00:00:42]
So with you it seems[00:00:46]
It only comes in trade[00:00:48]
Yeah but the first time the bill isn't paid [00:00:52]
It's too late[00:00:56]
So you just live in the dark[00:00:59]
You could drive but you just park[00:01:04]
You just talk when you could sing[00:01:09]
And now it doesn't mean a thing[00:01:13]
You could bite but you just bark[00:01:18]
You could light but you just spark[00:01:21]
You live on in the dark[00:01:25]
Rolling papers bottles and needles [00:01:35]
And people we trusted[00:01:38]
Our eyes just become too adjusted[00:01:41]
We'd be busted[00:01:45]
If sightlessness were a crime[00:01:47]
So now I guess I should be searching for matches[00:01:51]
But I don't see what's the use[00:01:55]
Engines run till they're out of juice[00:01:58]
And I can't even produce[00:02:02]
Fuel enough to light your face[00:02:04]
And that's a light I will never replace in time[00:02:08]
So I just live on in the dark[00:02:15]
I could drive but I just park[00:02:20]
I just talk when I could sing[00:02:25]
And now it doesn't mean a thing[00:02:29]
I could bite but I just bark[00:02:33]
I could light but I just spark[00:02:37]
I live on in the dark[00:02:41]
It's as if we've only ever come together[00:03:15]
Just to test each other's mettle[00:03:18]
Or to justify subsistence or bolster[00:03:23]
Our resistance to the idea that we should struggle[00:03:26]
When we could just settle[00:03:31]
So you just get numb to every itch[00:03:35]
And there's no feeling in your fingertips[00:03:39]
And you can't find the switch[00:03:45]
And we've grown much too tired to grope[00:03:48]
Yeah we lost all our fire to cope a long time ago[00:03:53]
So we just live on in the dark[00:04:00]
We could drive but we just park[00:04:05]
We just talk when we could sing[00:04:09]
And now it doesn't mean a thing[00:04:13]
We could bite but we just bark[00:04:17]
We could light but we just spark[00:04:21]
We live on in the dark[00:04:25]
