lyrics

Our small procession laid your little body down
Upon the tailgate
Bowing by the weight that you were hauling around
Oh what the words weighed

And I've been terrified
To try to tie a line
To any memory of the times
We fought the spinning inside our sewn together minds

I called you Angel in the breech
Of any guardian watching me
Into the fugue and through the drinks
My kidneys in the kitchen sink

You never said a word to no one

My constitution's probably gonna let you down
I'll make the big change
And take another swing living above ground
I'll set a new stage

And I've been riding on
That final morphine high
Since we went sailing through that night
Whispering "Thank you, baby,
No more pain now. It's alright"

I called you Angel and took you home
Subjected you to rock and roll
We barked at our immortal souls
And forced down both our separate bowls

And you never said a word
Though you always seemed so sure
Of something

Hey, don't you let it get you down
You'll be missing how this all shakes out
You're running with the big dogs now
