Razor Of Love

We burn through the money and take off our gloves

We cut up our eyes on the razor of love

I can't understand half the things that you can

But I love you

My face is a house stuck in hopeless repair

Your youth took a hike from your beautiful hair

But I wanna grow old with you

I didn't lie when I told you I love you

So you reach for the past but it melts like the snow

Damn decisions they follow you everywhere that you go

You made your mistakes there's no pill left to take

Just some water

All the pretty little little things I could make with my hands

All the cheap little notes I could have wrote for the band

Now you're asking me why I left it to die

Because I want you

All that is new is tired and old again

What was light is freezing cold again

Do you remember when a kiss was a hundred shocks to the spine?

And skin was the doorway to the carnal divine?

When the shackles of love had yet to decide

The fate of the fools who follow the blind?

You mistake my silence for some kind of doubt

When you lose your teeth may it please shut your mouth?

There may come a day when there's nothing I'd say

But I love you

The evening is toast and restless and board

And the kids are medieval and we are not the lords

But I cannot imagine if we didn't have them

I love you
