Everybody is a story Every heartbreak is a song Everybody hides a secret Every sinner knows his psalms... I've felt the heartbeat in the flames, I've seen the iris in the hurricane But this is poison wrapped in ****** with a whiskey chaser to numb the pain. It was as if we dreamed each other strawberry-creamed each other on the 3rd of July The nighttime sky cracked and cried all over the mountainside, on the eve of the fireworks. The galaxy grinned and bliss blushed when we kissed, but now I miss my lips on the nape of your neck, and the smell of your skin in the candlelight. I thought I saw a wild rose growing in a field of clover I thought I heard a tune in you, but now that song is over. ...We are birds of different feathers We are rain dogs in disguise We are trees in early autumn, reaching for the dusk-lit skies.

Rain Dogs in Disguise
Everybody is a story Every heartbreak is a song Everybody hides a secret Every sinner knows his psalms... I've felt the heartbeat in the flames, I've seen the iris in the hurricane But this is poison wrapped in ****** with a whiskey chaser to numb the pain. It was as if we dreamed each other strawberry-creamed each other on the 3rd of July The nighttime sky cracked and cried all over the mountainside, on the eve of the fireworks. The galaxy grinned and bliss blushed when we kissed, but now I miss my lips on the nape of your neck, and the smell of your skin in the candlelight. I thought I saw a wild rose growing in a field of clover I thought I heard a tune in you, but now that song is over. ...We are birds of different feathers We are rain dogs in disguise We are trees in early autumn, reaching for the dusk-lit skies.
