Mary Jane Kelly With A Bang To Mute Our Whimpers lyrics

Can we pretend for just one moment that maybe one or two of your dreams involved me?
That I happened to cross your mind when you were haunting mine?

You stole all of my borrowed time, and then skipped over state lines dripping seconds behind. I'll suck them in before they soak away. I owe the devils more than just my yesterdays.

I seem to always get in predicaments like you. I guess there's no hope of ending this on a good note?
Resolution was never a forte of your key.

But I won't vow to catch you, i'll gladly get right on my way, because the truth is a dead currency you use to imprison me.

This is why i forfeit my right to extract my love from the bottom of your heart.

I'd much rather pretend that for one of my seconds, I happened to cross your mind.
My steady hands, they have a plan of sorts. There will be a bang to mute our whimpers.
All you lucky girls can carry on living; the skin of your teeth won't hold you up forever.
