The Politics of Passing Out - The World/Inferno Friendship Society[00:00:00]
It was the politics of passing out and other things I thought about[00:00:12]
Wondering if and despairing of when you and I might meet again[00:00:18]
I made up lines I saved up quotes I burned through schemes[00:00:24]
I swam with hope[00:00:29]
Waiting for the moment when any of this might matter again[00:00:30]
We must burn but burn joyfully and give off light[00:00:36]
Unalloyed joy at least for tonight[00:00:42]
With dreams so strange[00:01:00]
And insistent it's no wonder I go around kicking things[00:01:02]
I dreamt I got touched I dreamt I could fly[00:01:06]
I never dreamt things would be bad between you and I[00:01:09]
We burn joyfully and we give off light[00:01:13]
Unalloyed joy at least for tonight[00:01:18]
So take it on the chin spit teeth shut up and sing[00:01:23]
Like the veins in my arms like the tattoos on your skin[00:01:29]
Night upon night blank cassettes and cigarettes[00:01:35]
Like lilacs off the tongue this was supposed to be fun[00:01:41]
This was supposed to be fun[00:01:47]
It was the politics of hanging out that made me feel so dumb about[00:02:00]
Going to shows or even answering the phone[00:02:06]
I ended up hanging out all alone[00:02:09]
And burn joyfully and give off light[00:02:14]
Unalloyed joy at least for tonight[00:02:18]
So take it on the chin spit teeth shut up and sing[00:02:23]
Like the veins in my arms like the tattoos on your skin[00:02:29]
Night upon night blank cassettes and cigarettes[00:02:35]
Like lilacs off the tongue this was supposed to be fun[00:02:41]
Man it was no sin blank looks and cigarettes[00:02:47]
Like the scars on my arms like the heat beneath your skin[00:02:53]
And fight upon fight busted lips and cigarettes[00:02:59]
Like curses off the tongue we're not supposed to be so dumb[00:03:05]
I wish we weren't so dumb[00:03:11]
I wish we weren't so dumb[00:03:14]
I wish we weren't so[00:03:17]
We must burn but burn joyfully and give off light[00:03:36]
Unalloyed joy at least for tonight[00:03:42]
Maybe just tonight[00:03:48]
