Lyrics
"Time comes in particles", someone once said
And this is what I remember, this is how my brain works
You got all the facts, I got all the useless detail
If I believed in anything I'd pray to the gods of injuries
To stay out of our lives, except in times like these
I put ships on rails, we put ourselves on trains
You put your trust into the world, I put my hand where it's safe
My words form knots, your words form figure eights
I'd like to multiply horizons from battlefields to the stage
And who will we be the next time we meet?
(Who will we be the next time we meet?)
With our cracked cuticles and our sharp teeth
(What we've done in the meantime)
All things hidden in the mouth of the wolverine
All things playful (grown-up, grown-up, grown-up)
And mean (I got my bridges built)
You won't become numb, I won't stay the same
If I try hard enough, I can cry paper planes
And we'll connect the dots in the history books
And you'll see the bigger picture, I'll shrink down the greater good
We keep our fingers crossed all the way through the evening news
I promise ankle anthems sitting drunk on the kitchen floor
So let's bite our lips, and grab our wrists, and sing (sing, sing, sing, sing)
I think a storm is moving in
So watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out for our
Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out for our
Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out for our
Favorite apocalypse
Who will we be the next time we meet?
Who will we be the next time we see what we've done in the meantime?
In the mouth of the wolverine
All things playful, grown-up, grown-up, grown-up
I got my bridges built
Can you do me a favor? (Who will we be the next time we meet?)
Can you do me a favor? (Who will we be the next time we see?)
Can you give me one cent for everything that doesn't make any sense? (What we've done in the meantime)
Can you do me a favor? (In the mouth of the wolverine)
'Cause I could be a rich woman by now (all things playful, grown-up, grown-up, grown-up)
(I got my bridges built)
Can you do me a favor? (Who will we be the next time we meet?)
Can you do me a favor? (Who will we be the next time we see?)
Can you give me one cent for everything that doesn't make any sense? (What we've done in the meantime)
Can you do me a favor? (In the mouth of wolverine)
'Cause I could be a rich woman by now (all things playful, grown-up, grown-up, grown-up and mean)
(Grown-up, grown-up and mean)
So would you give me one cent? (Grown-up, grown-up and mean)
For everything that doesn't make sense? (Grown-up, grown-up and mean)
So would you give me one cent?
For everything that doesn't make sense?
(I could be a rich woman by now)
