These common are shit These common are shit These common are shit These common above (Due tonight, it’s due tonight) These common are shit These common are shit These common are shit These common above

I handed you the corer But you soonly forgot What it is you would be doing With the glaze in my heart To name you through my jealous song To sift you through my kiss I’ll never know the feeling They must feel for my fate I cannot tell you proudly enough I love the oneness Of knowing that my heart’s been taken By you again The glutton of romantic systems Doomed in his debt With bells and gongs both bellicose And ever unsaid

Crude his throat He′s culling the spit As Christmas moves too close He's not busy He′s combing his mouth for spit to keep or give Words to keep and give Words to keep and give Crude his throat He's culling the spit As Christmas moves too close He's not busy He′s combing his mouth for spit to keep or give Words to keep and give

You never heard of a whole level of his coding You never heard of a whole level of this You never heard of a whole level of his coding In the scaffolding you waste your grown form As careful as children moving In my skeleton you will be grown firm (Oh, I'll light your way with laughter Oh, I'll light your way with laughter So stay, I'll light your way laughing)

None anticipate me on the route to escape Don′t allow their colors in your room I'll crown you with the things I do well I′ll crown you with the things I do well Would I be sad if it's all there is? Would I be sad if it's all there is? Would I be sad if it′s all there is? Would I be sad? (I don′t get sad!) I will take a photo of the stone with the stave Adding to the colors of my room Then your girl will come take you away Then your girl will come take you away Then your girl will come take you away Then your girl will come take you away (Then your girl will come) Then your girl will come take you away Then your girl will come take you away Then your girl will come take you away Stones and staves Stones and staves Stones and staves

Where is this, where is this outside That I′ve got no tear stain after On my wound is the kiss of God And the cup is in the skull cave Am I clueless here? Am I cursed in my spirit? Where I walk, where I walk outside There's a kid who is darkening younger I wait the season out It only takes hopeful wishing That I could live alive Not today Not today Where I walk, where I walk outside On the clothes in the stomach there′s a static If I took my stingers here I would be the dumbest to pray My prayer, my prayer tapered My prayer, my prayer tapered Where I walk, where I walk in mind Black currants dangle long-lastingly

In the restful sky I will close down I will rescue her Never so safe In the restful sky I will close down I will rescue coals Never claimed stiff I will rescue her From the cocoon Give me a star Where we can hide
