Damage done by the size of her voice; Hairline fractur'd, receding bone, drawn away by the weight; The human dumbwaiter, a body held together with tension rods; Veins, flooded tunnels with blood; The human dumbwaiter, built into its own foundation; That's a load bearing vision, man wasn't meant to walk first. When I am all broken shattered lying on the couch breathing in fumes, she is an engine burning out inside me. I looked in her mouth and it was like killing yourself in the garage with a hose.

I Gave that to You
Damage done by the size of her voice; Hairline fractur'd, receding bone, drawn away by the weight; The human dumbwaiter, a body held together with tension rods; Veins, flooded tunnels with blood; The human dumbwaiter, built into its own foundation; That's a load bearing vision, man wasn't meant to walk first. When I am all broken shattered lying on the couch breathing in fumes, she is an engine burning out inside me. I looked in her mouth and it was like killing yourself in the garage with a hose.
