Lyrics
Ribcage
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We blew the doors didn't we?
Pissed in their champagne
And did a real thing didn't we?
Gave ourselves a name
And peeled away the shame
I wanted to explode
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside
Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds it's way into my room
All I need is you
We called that love
All you have is kisses
And all I need is you.
