You and me under the trees
you'll never see a brighter sky in your life
The sepia moon, her time-withered face
she'll never see another us in her life
so hold, hold on tight
Though tonight will happen forever
it'll fade in your head with time
The present's already a memory
but believe me
you'll never taste a sweeter laugh in your life
Breathe deep so you may remember the taste
Let's not tell the stars
let's not tell the sun
it's morning
It can be our secret
Because maybe if I could live in this instant
I'll die thinking life was too short

I remember
we were virgins
nothing will be the same
This feels just like home, just like home
A home you'll never know

I'll cut holes in my body
so as I'm whisked away
I'll hear our song
sung by parts of me,
parts that are gone
I'll live a million miles for you
We'll drown in people
come up alone
but believe me
I'll find my way back
I'll come home

This summer's too long
my kids are too young
Will you take the wilderness out of your hair
and put it back where it came from?
All I want is to miss what I have right now

Where's the love in your violence?
Theres no love in your violence.
What is this meaningless violence, love?
I need love in my violence.
You put love in your violence.
I need your love in my
Where's the love in your violence?
Theres no love in your violence.
What is this meaningless violence, love?
I need love in my violence.
You put love in your violence.
I need your love in my

I'm coming home
Dive down to my core
kicking into knots
just another reminder
you're not in my arms
But I close my mouth
to keep you there
it's not your turn anymore
I'm coming home

I don't remember
what those kids
laughed about
that night in the woods
But that's okay
it belongs to them
their secret to keep
That's where you told me to go
that's where I asked you to stay
and at least one of us kept our word

Laugh with me, laugh with me
the punchline is in and it's better than ever
The meaning of life can be seen
crawling across your face
after I tell a joke
just not this joke
and not this face

Our very own house
our very own bed
chalk outline grins
held by strings overhead
Child locked
but understood
by orange caskets of pills
We are still in those woods
strung up by the gills
but still laughing.
