Stop Breathing

歌詞

The pillar, peak and palm that makes you dream O the sun is your alarm, the church that's leaving Come to Bahamas, to 1971 When you weren't even the grain of an idea Carpentaria, the midnight seeming longer than we are Carp are dreaming of sunsets in the casbah And the world is repeating phrases in a broken down car In your film noir, on a highway to a star Waking in the dusty gate Of men who never arrive, and never really seem to be Though I can fix the car, and I can drive a thousand miles to find out Where you are And ask you "Have I really arrived?" Cast me down a glance at the top, close my eyes And I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop breathing Pretty face, human race Oh yeah, I know Say, how much for those words? That's a fifty cent novel on the ecstacy of surds Seems such a horrible waste when you could buy grass for the yard Pottery wheels and broken heels are not gonna get very far into these words That's a fifty cent novel on the ecstacy of surds Seems such a horrible waste when you could buy grass for the yard Pottery wheels and broken heels are not gonna get very far into these words Of men who never arrive, and never really seem to be Though I can fix the car, and I can drive a thousand miles to find out Where you are And ask you "Have I really arrived?" Cast me down a glance at the top, close my eyes And I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop breathing Pretty face, human race Oh yeah, I know You met for your mortar traces, your fifty cent shoelaces I'm high on your pulitzer now... Oh you can never ever be, no you can never ever be The one that got us through the burning sun like you thought you would Ask me "Have I really arrived?" Cast me down a glance at the top, close my eyes And I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop To stop breathing I'll kiss you when I know I should not Close your eyes and I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop To stop... O cast me down a glance at the top, close my eyes And I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop To stop breathing And I'll kiss you when I know I should not Close your eyes and I'll love you 'til you tell me to stop To stop Stop breathing Stop breathing Pretty face, human race Oh yeah, I know...
