the mountain goats - collapsing stars lyrics
when we hid out behind the risers at the high school
working bitter calculations with a slide rule
the grim particulars of poisoning the swimming pool
the way you looked me in the eye, ready to die
we were becoming what we are
collapsing stars
when we chewed up children’s aspirin like bubblegum
till our hearts were beating deep and rich as kettle drums
we knew if we waited long enough the change would come
and then the day did come, and at last
hold tight
hold fast
catch lightning in a jar
collapsing stars
told you to load up on provisions
we wouldn’t be back for a while
pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
turn toward the camera and smile, smile, smile
when we ditched the plan to poison all our enemies
tucked our weapons in a clearing, and covered them with leaves
we are gonna come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves one day
well we are on our way
you can look
but you won’t find
another love like ours
collapsing stars
