I burned out
The wires cut at both ends
You reached out
Your hands like sails in the wind
I threw down the anchor
Said "stop right here before
the current drags us under"
I tasted the salt water on your teeth
And thought "this can't be good for me"
So I drew that line in the sand
But a wave came & washed it away
Then we rode the next one
Straight into your bedroom..
Well... Hey Baby...
Just maybe...
we're supposed to lick the
toxins from time to time
Just to recognize the pain
As it splashes down our spines
