Accidental Seabirds Pillows lyrics

what did you take for lunch,
and what did it take from you?
There is a smell now where your smile was
and there is a hell now where your eyes once were cloudless, fearless

you're shaking off the dust that's piled up you
it didn't take long, did it?
and it didn't hurt at all when you hit it until you faded out
at least you made it out, now you can go

dream like it's the last time
we will ever speak each others' names
I know you feel fine now that real life
holds a steel spike to your neck
and you'll see the shine if you wake in time

You're shaving off the rust that grows back every day
the city is gray, even the ceiling

and it isn't rare to find you kneeling next to porcelain when the moon dies
you try to stop the spins from trying to stop you
well they are a broad blade of nausea
and trust me the only cure will cost you teeth & tapeworm

(chorus)
& before you know it there'll be nothing left

It's a long walk. are these just growing pains?
or a backdrop to life's consuming flame?
swing high, the sky comprised of glass & goals
between which you go

(chorus)
now that real life is full of fake names, broken frames, fixed games & other wonderful things
