Lyrics

I Love You, Honeybear

Oh, honeybear, honeybear, honeybear
Mascara, blood, ash and cum
On the Rorschach sheets where we make love

Honeybear, honeybear, honeybear
Fuck the world, damn straight malaise
It may be just us who feel this way

Don't ever doubt this, my steadfast conviction
My love, you're the one I wanna watch the ship go down with
The future can't be real
I barely know how long a moment is

Unless we're naked, getting high on the mattress
While the global market crashes
As debt fills the streets with garden variety oblivious
You grab my hand and say in I-told-you-so voice
"It's just how we expected"

Everything is doomed
And nothing will be spared
But I love you, honeybear

Honeybear, honeybear, honeybear

You're bent over the altar
And the neighbors are complaining
That the misanthropes next door
Are probably conceiving a Damien
Don't they see the darkness rising?
Good luck fingering oblivion

We're getting out now, while we can
You're welcome, boys
Have the last of the smokes and chicken
Just one Cadillac will do
To get us out to where we're going
I brought my mother's depression
You've got your father's scorn
And a wayward aunt's schizophrenia

But everything is fine
Don't give into despair
'Cause I love you, honeybear

Honeybear, honeybear, honeybear
