Hurting And Shoving (she Should Have Let Me Sleep) Lyrics

"When I get back"
Pre-break of dawn
hear the ring it's me
live from a
pay phone
talking in the rain.
Things pan out exactly as i say they
will.
Will I be less happy
when I get back?

Two hand in one
glove
as if we were poor.
The hard up make the soup from stones
like
the poor before them did before.

You say the waiting could crush your
heart.

But it's nothing new to me
have you crave me so
desperately
but I know
how when you need me you bleed for me,
though
now I'm gone you fill my shoes with new
fans.
Always and forever
we
are apart and may she see
she'd be free rejoicing in distance
if she only
let me sleep.

"Will things make less happy
when I get
back?"

Absence makes the heart grow still.
Abuse the hunt; confuse
the kill.
I know, I know.

Make the dead feel
deader
deader.
Make the dead sleep nights with a
razor
waiting.
Kill the prey.

I'll hold my child's head
underwater.
If it's a boy, I was joking
if it's a daughter, I'll say I
did what I did
because I had to...
And if you find my kid later
tell
her I laughed too.

We just might work out fine
because I love you
enough
to let you give the pain that I want
...And when you do
I just
might fuck you
enough to love you.
Once upon my night stand
lied
letters piled in columns
postmarked Middle Island
out east in the country
of Solemn.
