lyrics

baby, count down the days,
they’re thieves blow them away
are you in need of a cure?
someone or something to fall on your knees before...

baby, overhear, fireflies trapped in jars
go on and shed false splendor
i want to see beyond the glare

tires through water
things folded and tucked away
not unlike the many things we don’t discuss...

you’re a one hit wondering why...
a star consciously falling out of the sky
a one hit wondering why...

baby, you do it to yourself
tie yourself to the train tracks
then scream to me for help
