Bought a Bride

Trees will make a forest

Trees will make a bow

These are all the harder

Words you have to know

If everyone's a structure

Where their own savior sits

Then I'm a little red house

And no one's living in it

Cars are little blood cells

We are oxygen

City is the airways

Suburbs appendages

She was feeling lonely

She left her hive

Rented out a family

She bought a bride

Bought a bride

Bought a bride

Bought a bride

Little cities names labeled along the map

They tied her up and laid her on the train tracks

Where are all the seedlings

We grew from violence

Down in Jersey lumber

Stealing prosthetic limbs

Should've been a soldier

I should've fought and died

There's no revolution

So I bought a bride

Bought a bride

Bought a bride

Bought a bride

Coming down the alley while the horns play "Taps"

They tied her up and laid her on the train tracks

Somehow I always knew when everything was unsaid

Go and buy a hammer, never sing again
