tigers on trains – washington state lyrics
[verse 1]
so i could just lay here
and watch your skin turn into salt
and breathe deep in relief
as you start to evaporate
and i too will dry out
and thin until i am no more
just as god intended
and we will meet beneath the tongues of flame
called by our hebrew names
[verse 2]
the white wind, your black lungs
a mass of grey inside your chest
a simple equation to somehow set your head straight
a red box with ribbons
to house all of our troubles
a weak knee, an earthquake
the fact that i could never come back clean
at lеast that’s how it seemed
[bridge]
so i’ll pretend to undеrstand
while you bury me in sand
and build your house upon the shaking patch of earth
so i’ve been giving it a chance
with my head between my hands
but it is just too much to know that you are happier alone
[verse 3]
a contract, a constant
a phrase that will not leave my mouth
the garden of eden
hung up around your shoulders
so i could have waited
out on an empty threshing floor
and quoted the gospels
i guess it’s better that i did not try
i just don’t know why
