I could make a habit of us
Deluxe,
Everything you touch
You could put it on in the morning light, yeah I don't wanna lose the rush
We'll lay it down if ya wanna relax
Forever pushin' it through
If you can keep it running for me my love than I can keep it running for you
Honey are you holding the light?
Take whatever time you need
But if you want it ritually I know that I could be your guarantee
We cool it down when it's double-dutch
Forever pushin' it through
If you can get it ready for me my love then I can get it ready for you
I wanna show you that I mean it

I lost a mind to a limit unknown
Nothing is easy, living with your ghost
I lost a mind to a limit unknown
The world is blind
And I'm alone
I lost a month and the livin' was coal
There was a darkness like nothing I had known
I don't belong in the world as a ghost
If love is blind let it take me home
I won't ever understand
Take it easy dying to pretend
I won't ever understand
Take it easy dying to pretend
'Cause I don't belong to the world anymore

Creatures on the street we roam
The red light down the alley set the tone
A dreadnought for the rain
We'll be drowning in the parlor on our own
Afterwards you'll slam the door
Well I just don't think I love you anymore
But you should understand I am always gonna be there when you land
We could walk back home through the ninth
Got the world slowly turning on the sharpest knife
I don't feel like driving
You don't seem to mind
I could let you turn me on
But I just got a message from the Gods
Saying, "nothing that you ever believe is gonna come to really mean anything"
Now you say that you've been traveling
All the pain you're in unraveling
I put your post card in a box in a carry-on
Where in the world you wake up
Feels like a lifetime ago
The streets you roam
They might be lonely, but you're not alone
We could walk back home through the ninth
Got the world slowly turning on the sharpest knife
I don't feel like driving
You don't seem to mind

A Carolina kiss on the neck when I'm walkin'
Smokin' half your stash
Paint a little breath in the alley out back
Never a knock-on catch
Chasing down a Casanova
Write another flashback down
Standing in the kitchen with the light on baby
I wonder what you found
I don't know ya
Like you want me to
Sandpaper voice on my stereo talkin'
You got your magazine
Tan-line smile drinking worry on the rocks
A lizard in a limousine
You can call me Arizona
I'm nothing but a flashback now
Standing in the kitchen with the light on baby
Just come and lie back down
I don't know ya
Like you want me to

I'm in the valley with all the other freaks
Underneath the vampire bridge
Did you bite my tongue?
Can we go back to the coast?
We don't need no money
Let's get off to get over
Like all the other freaks
I wonder how many times you'll have to carry me home
Another junkie for lucky
Another delicate mess
If you're the beautiful loser
Than I'm the infinite jest
Another junkie for lucky
If I could hazard I guess I think I'd say that you'll be nobody's baby
But you'll be somebody's pet
How good does it get?
Whatever we been smokin' is kinda making me anxious
My whole life the strangest
Maybe I need a break
Let's go back to the coast
We don't need our clothes
Baby I'm feeling lost
Like all the other freaks
I wonder how many times you've had to carry me home
Another junkie for lucky
Another delicate mess
If you're the beautiful loser
Than I'm the infinite jest
Another junkie for lucky
If I could hazard I guess I think I'd say that you'll be nobody's baby
But you'll be somebody's pet
How good does it get?

Can I keep a feeling from tearing down your heart?
Heavy light contained in whatever drugs your on
I can see you're rolling by the color of your eyes
Did I make it way too easy for you to say goodbye?
Underwater with my girl
Underwater with my girl
You got me underwater with my girl
You got me underwater with my girl
Tennessee Hamona flood the evening sky
So you asked me to pull over on an ordinary night
The cemetery ether in the sedentary sun
And you ran to fix the picture but the light was gone
Underwater with my girl
I see no future swimming for the pearls
You got me underwater with my girl
You got me underwater with my girl

Everywhere you look
Everywhere you look
Everywhere you look
Anyway you turn
You know its all the same
Nothing's changing anymore
So let's get high on something
Miles away and still I'm nowhere
I fix my spirit in a glass
I am drifting by your side baby
Everywhere you look
Anyway you turn
You know its all the same
Nothing's changing anymore
So let's get high on something
When you crash I'm soon to follow
Cause time was never ours to hold
Only the body knows
The mind is gone
Can you write it down baby?
Everywhere you look
Anyway you turn
You know its all the same
Nothing's changing anymore
So let's get high on something

I wake up every morning to a vision of you
Running through the Narrows with all your friends
Like its the first time
It's hard to watch you go running away
Run into the corner of my love
I might know you better if I could crawl across the dream in summer weather
And if you're thinking that you'd like to know me better
Honey you got time
I can't let you in
You'd only suffer again
I watch it all roll by like its the first time
I don't own a thing
I never suffer the need
I only wanted someone to remember me
I might know you better if I could crawl across the dream in summer weather
And if you're thinking that you'd like to know me better
Where in the world you go
