WE WERE SKELETONS LYRICS

"Sewers"

[Rafael:]
Our arms break to the rhythm of wolves' beating hearts
Lives caught in their teeth,
I can't leave
The scene of the injury
The nature of the crash has left me enthralled
Don't leave, stay young
I prayed and wrote to you, and sent my letters down the storm drains in the streets
So I just sit and sigh.
Nothing left but a blank hope, blank heart
Your nights are left burning in my throat, spinning in my head like a nightmare.
Filled to the brim, waiting to spill out all over me
Swimming in my own messy sweat, won't you come over and swim with me?
Spitting lovers, spin and dance, in the car crash of their romance
I spit and spin and dance and dream and burn and burst in my sleep.
In my sleep, my head's still not left alone.

[Justin:]
Days are passing, I've waited in line for too long
Sure it was fun at first but now things are just useless
And I'm starting to feel hatred, sedated, confused about these complications
Of bypass surgery, carwrecked atrophy, speaking conservatively through lips locked
And in these streets, my empty thoughts just aren't empty enough
For me to want to stomach this whole, I just can't keep it down
No I can't keep it down
I'll just litter these streets in the trash that I vomit from my scum sucking head
And you'll laugh when you realize I cared
My heart capsizes and sinks to the floor
Falls to the sewers with the thoughts from before
And if I can get out of this mess
I'll take some time to clean up
