A Mind I Knew

[Verse 1]
And the roof's half gone
But they've left the TV on
And the one-way sign
It was twisted like a vine

Pour out the wine
Cardboard underneath our spines
"Curled up shoes"
They keep repeating on the news

[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering in
This is not a spiritual thing
So act your age

[Chorus]
Your heart is like a crippled demon, semen on your clothes
Kill everything I built around me, nervous I suppose

[Verse 2]
Dancing late
We keep going on first dates
Underneath your sheets
Sleight of hand and daring feats

And the pain just peels
Blooms confetti color fields
The sun rolls up
Rolling like a paper cup

[Chorus]
My anger doesn't know surrender, skin without its clothes
Blue fragments of a mind I knew when cocaine's in its nose
You crash just like a car accident, feet without it's toes
Don't violate the steps I took to make sure my door's closed

[Outro]
Your life is like the mundane suffering on late night police shows
Forced into false affiliations, invisible shadows
