Radar & Leda

Radar met Leda on a freight elevator

He made a joke about the fatal attraction

And even though she didn't seem to recognize the reference

Later on they made a little connection

She lost track of her friends at some party in a warehouse

So she's happy someone's paying attention

She could tell that Radar had seen a bit of action

The way he kept his eyes on the entrance

She'd been with some guys that had a similar feature

Defenses switching quick to aggression

Radar said he's only tying to figure out the future

And the trick is in the early detection

She used to work in a shop

But one day she just stopped showing up for the opening

Spent the last couple years with the lingering fear

Making deals with the dopamine

Radar and Leda sharing new information

Telling each other everything

Back in his place and Leda opens the fridge

It's just some mustard and a two pack of Blatz

Botanica candles on the floor by the mattress

Which is really just a gymnastics mat

He said he falls out of bed with hard dreams in his head

All flash bang and bird songs and skittering insects

And this one kind of sadness that keeps veering into violence

That feeling when you steer in the skid

Cause pleasure's a rental but pain's residential

And every garden gets overgrown

Spent the last couple weeks too suspicious to sleep

Terrified of the telephone

Radar and Leda staying up even later

Telling each other everything

And every tangle can come undone

But in the end we're all on our own

It's hard to hold out hope that your call's gonna come

When you're terrified of the telephone

She used to work in a shop, then one day she just stopped

Now she mostly just hangs at home

'Cause pleasure's a rental and the terms aren't so simple

And any vessel can overflow

She used to work at some store but it's not there anymore

There's something new where it used to be

Radar and Leda trading their medications

Telling each other everything

Telling each other everything

Telling each other everything
