lyrics

well, if i saved every cent i bet i still could not afford
that bottle of perfume you bought from an upscale department store
you picked it up, and then you smashed it on the floor
before it even hit the ground, you were right back to being bored
oh darling, fame is like a manhole in the street
people get these weird ideas about where it might lead
fucking people in this town, i can't believe
resolutely superfcial, yet obsessed with the unseen

you and me:
we don't live on borrowed time. we stole it, let's be real
truthfully:
well, i'm not sure we'll stop taking even though we say we will
human beings:
the ones who've lived the longest are the ones we should have killed
ruefully:
they will all live on forever, drinking blood and popping pills

when the lawyers used my blood to write the terms of the divorce
well, she got to keep her dignity, and you got to keep new york
so, we both dropped 2-CT-7 back at yours
the trip report you wrote on erowid won several awards!
oh darling, hate is like this river in the spring
the air around it becomes putrid and impossible to breathe.
left unchecked it will continue to increase
oh, until the day it rises up and swallows everything but

you and me:
we don't live on borrowed time. we stole it, let's be clear
apparently:
well, our greed is justifiable, if we lie and call it fear
human beings:
they want to go to other planets now, and stain them with their tears
ruefully:
it's the good days when i wonder if it shouldn't just end here

well, i never thought i'd find the kind of love that i imagined
when that writer from the hairpin did that profile on chris evans
oh, i thought it was like thorium or free and fair elections
something very cool in theory that, in real life, never happens
darling, family is like the air we breathe
you can see that it's inside you - all you have to do is bleed
and at the end, when this has cost you everything?
i'll be cheering from the cheap seats as they drop the guillotine,
and that's the tea
