lyrics

Hey I'm sitting here with the door unlocked
Hoping and wishing you'll come in and start and never ever stop
We are numb we are dead our lives are lost
The grim unending necessary drugs
In their dozens and dozens of lovely forms
Potions and powders and pretty pills
The telephone and the cable and the doctors bills

The blood flows through our veins like mud
Brains shift like reptiles in the summer sun
But under our moon this is love

Somewhere a schoolgirl sits with her legs apart
And a crooked old man with a purple heart
Is forgiving and forgetting everything he ever taste
Uppers and downers and inside and outers
And all you ever do is stay in one place

Our blood flows through out veins like mud
Our brains shift like reptiles in the summer sun
I remember a boy that would fly 
Breathlessly through an ocean sky
But under our moon this is love
