Don't speak. Words come out your eyes. You're wet with this nightmare. Like thorns you hold these secrets to your breast, your slender fingers closing into fists. Trace your bruise like a guilty streak. Hold the pain. You're a connoisseur. You think you have no other gift to give, but we have so much left to live. We don't need a lot of money. We'll be sleeping on the beach, keeping oceans within reach. (Whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.) I will stumble there with you and you'll be laughing close with me, trying not to make a scene etcetera. Whatever. I guess all I really mean is we're gonna be alright. Yeah, we're gonna be alright. You can close your eyes tonight, 'cause we're gonna be alright. So come on now, I can almost see that place on a distant shore. And courage is a weapon we must use to find some life you can't refuse. We don't need a lot of money. We'll be sleeping on the beach, keeping oceans within reach. (Whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.) I will stumble there with you and you'll be laughing close with me, trying not to make a scene etcetera. Whatever. I guess all I really mean is we're gonna be alright. Yeah, we're gonna be alright. You can close your eyes tonight, 'cause we're gonna be alright. All that I can see is your eyes. Close your eyes. Close your eyes.
