Younger Wives

I spent the whole night
Digging a hole inside my living room
I used a bright light
To echo stars in pools of shivered moonlight
I'm falling further and further than i thought i would be, yeah
I bought some time so you wouldn't believe that i lost my own mind
But to you, my honey, see, i've wasted time
I thought you'd love me if you were mine
But you demand that boring life you have with him now
I spent my whole life
Looking at lights through tilted chandeliers
I made devices
That tunneled colors you were born to hear
I'm falling further and further than i thought i would be, yeah
I bought some time so you wouldn't believe that i lost my own mind
But to you, my honey, see, i've wasted time
I thought you'd love me if you were mine
But you demand that boring life you have with him now
Yeah, out upon the scene, they took my life
They've got their reasons and younger wives
They'll understand that boring life they have once i'm gone
I spent my whole life looking at lights through tilted chandeliers
