The Wren

[Sims] I'm in your garden now I picked them flowers out I went too far right now I meant we bottomed out You dig for higher ground You hit the fire now No time for stopping, tore the wires out [Dessa] I've got this music in my head I've got this hole in my chest I've got this bird in my hands That looks like it's been crushed to death But it's a players game Ante up and pick your token Keep one beneath your tongue for when your best gets broken I swallowed my tongue I bided my time Trying to get just this one thing right By the book but the hook just sends I'm shook God knows I'll always bite Cause part of the fun is the road rash (yeah) Feeling the gravel go past (yeah) And I don't care what they say There's no such thing as a clean break [Sims' Hook] You're too smart to say what you think And I'm too real not to say what I feel But when it starts to sink I'll grab the wheel I'll keep on steering for you I'll keep on steering for you [Sims] Reap out the end if I could She walked with vengeance, walks good She wants my head up on wood Lopping off the chopping block Shoulda stopped And watching red flags coming The red things a running Always heavy, heavy drops to the floor Locking the door And thats it Don't let her in No veteran Hello though, the L-O-V-O In bold lettering Then I'm back in the red again Latched to a skeleton Old friend, relax and just settle in Enjoy that, bad medicine Push it to the limits Good beginnings are the toughest ones to finish [Dessa's Hook] I found your pale faced blue lipped God Beneath the kitchen table Starving, and eating paper He showed me what you wrote and what you'd asked Love Nothing can live on prayers like that Love [Dessa] It's not vengeance and it's not bloodlust Justice is just a rule of law So hold down the magician The beautiful assistant Should get her turn with the saw [Sims] Percocet, gauze She working them claws Only purpose to draw more bad blood Thats a sad war love You know that though You know those chains were self-imposed Your words, my stinging molars Sing it slow I'll curse it while your world is sinking lower [Dessa] Rewind and watch it go backwards From last lines to first words The flash goes back in the camera The flask back in the handbag Don't ask How after one phone call He hit two lovebirds with only one stone wall [Sims] Valentine's day at the dead letter office Looking for my girl like Yellow Ledbetter, 214 She said she left to find the meaning of life Whatever that means I wonder where she's sleeping tonight [Dessa's Hook] [Sims' Hook] I'm in your garden now I picked them flowers out I went too far right now I meant we bottomed out You dig for higher ground You hit the fire now No time for stopping, tore the wires out (Wires out) I'm in over my head Over my head You dig me deep, deep, deep You dig me deep, deep, deep (x2)
