[Verse 1]
Daddy, please hear this song that I sing
In your heart, there's a spark that just screams
For a lover to bring
A child to your chest that could lay as you sleep
And love all you have left, like your boy used to be
Long ago, wrapped in sheets warm and wet
[Verse 2]
Blister, please, with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine
How he'd love to find
Your tongue in his teeth in a struggle to find
Secret songs that you keep wrapped in boxes so tight
Sounding only at night as you sleep
[Bridge]
And in my dreams, you're alive and you're crying
As your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet
Rings of flowers 'round your eyes and I'll love you
For the rest of your life when you're ready
[Verse 3]
Brother, see, we are one in the same
And you left with your head filled with flames
And you watched as your brains
Fell out through your teeth, push the pieces in place
Make your smile sweet to see, don't you take this away
I'm still wanting my face on your cheek
[Bridge]
And when we break, we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
When we break, we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life
[Outro]
Two-headed boy, she is all you could need
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wire
And retire to sheets, safe and clean
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
*creaking, guitar hitting floor, footsteps*
