Kissing The Lipless - The Shins

Called to see if your back

Was still aligned and your sheets

Were growing grass all on the corners of your bed

But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves

It has too much to do with me

And secretly I want to bury in the yard

The grey remains of a friendship scarred

You told us of your new life there

You got someone comin' around

Gluing tinsel to your crown

He's got you talking pretty loud

You berate remember your ailing heart and your criminal eyes

You say you're still in love

If it's true what can be done

It's hard to leave all those moments behind

Called to see if your back

Was still aligned and your sheets

Were growing grass all on the corners of your bed

But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves

It has too much to do with me

And secretly I want to bury in the yard

The grey remains of a friendship scarred

You tested your metal of doe's skin and petals

While kissing the lipless

Who bleed all the sweetness away
