Barking Dog

It is not your fault
You wield a
Dullish sort of knife
You are made up of atoms from
Someone who, like a wishbone
Has left you in the sun to dry

And don't you know
You can't stop the tears from coming?
Baby, you were always meant to drown
And no amount of love then
Can stop the dog from barking
When she's in pain

Yellow lines are quilted
In streets where I fell
Smack dab into you
Now we're bound by blood and gore
Blades of grass indent my elbows
You can numb the sting but nothing more

'Cause now I know
You can't stop the tears from coming
Baby, you were always meant to drown
And no amount of loving
Can stop the dog from barking
When she's in pain

Smack dab into you
Smack dab into you
Dab into you
Smack dab into you
Smack dab into you
Dab into you

'Cause now I know
I can't stop the tears from coming (dab into you)
Baby, I was always meant to drown (dab into you)
And no amount of loving (smack dab into you)
Can stop this dog from barking (dab into you)
'Cause she's in pain (dab into you)

(Smack) I am the sum of parts (dab into you)
(Smack) kick back and watch me spark (dab into you)
Take all the things I lack (dab into you)
And brace for impact
'Cause the centre will not hold (dab into you)
Darkness reaps what darkness sows (dab into you)

Dab into you
