The Awful Sweetness Of Escaping Sweat - Bright Eyes[00:00:00]

We escape from the house[00:00:02]

As the day disappears from the sky[00:00:02]

Into night[00:00:06]

We became what we wanted to be[00:00:07]

Like a dream or a ghost[00:00:12]

I collapse out of turn[00:00:19]

Near a house[00:00:22]

Lying still in the grass and felt the heat from the ground[00:00:23]

Rising up to contract and expand like a breath[00:00:28]

We escape from that place[00:00:40]

Soaked with sweat and the poison we drank[00:00:41]

Fill the bathtub with ice and hope this fever will break[00:00:45]

Like a heart[00:00:51]

Easily[00:00:54]

But i do not recall all the words that were formed[00:00:59]

On those wire lips as they greeted me[00:01:04]

A promise was made without thought as the temperature climbed[00:01:09]

And i started to sink like the moon[00:01:19]

Tends to do if you stare at it too long[00:01:22]

Then you blink and its gone[00:01:30]

And we crawl to our sleep with the dawn[00:01:38]

And isn't it the same mistake and isn't it the same mistake and isn't it the same mistake [00:01:52]

It's not much of an escape[00:02:11]

And isn't it the same [00:02:17]

I awake in the light feeling hollow and selfishly warm[00:02:24]

Close the blinds and retreat until what is burning is gone[00:02:30]

And it's light is away[00:02:36]

Then we are back in the dark[00:02:43]

Chasing nothing through backyards and trees[00:02:45]

You ripped your shirt on a fence but it didn't get me[00:02:49]

Yeah it's fear[00:02:55]

It makes you slow[00:02:57]

And these creatures look crooked[00:03:02]

Their shadows cut lines through my face and the concrete is fire[00:03:04]

Where my bare feet are placed[00:03:11]

In a line next to yours[00:03:14]

And i guess i'm not sure if it was fear that was born[00:03:21]

As those awful eyes made their claim on us[00:03:26]

I put my hands on the fence[00:03:31]

Said your name[00:03:33]

And i started to climb[00:03:34]

And it must have been sweat but i drank it like wine[00:03:40]

It was sweet and my mouth was dry[00:03:45]

I heard you scream but i made no reply[00:03:52]

I can still taste it now if i try[00:03:59]
