About the Artist
Lyrics
She's a jar with a heavy lid My pop quiz kid, a sleepy kisser A pretty war with feelings hid She begs me not to miss her She says forever to light a fuse We could use a handful of wheel And a day off, and a bruised road However you might feel Tonight is real When I forget how to talk, I sing Won't you please bring that flash to shine? And turn my eyes red unless they close When you click and my face gets sick Stuck, like a question unposed Just climb aboard The tracks of a train's arm In my fragile family tree And watch me floating inches above The people under me Please, beware the quiet front yard I warned you before there were water skies I warned you not to drive Dry your eyes, you poor devil Are there really ones like these? The ones I dream float like leaves And freeze to spread skeleton wings I passed through before I knew you I believe it's just because Daddy's payday is not enough Oh, I believe it's all because Daddy's payday is not enough Just climb aboard The tracks of a train's arm In my fragile family tree And watch me floating inches above The people under me She's a jar with a heavy lid My pop quiz kid, a sleepy kisser A pretty war with feelings hid You know she begs me not to hit her
