Twisted Branches we lie in bed with legs twisted
a wreck but we haven't made contact
my toes go numb with whole sheet over you like a body bag
but not as numb as we go everytime one of us has punched out an i love you
and you haven't been on the job in about a month or much longer
i can't hardly remember
and now i can hardly stay home
cause i know its ending
and i can't stand it
upright when its fatally tilting
like the lamppost you crashed into
the night you drunk yourself close to dead before letting me speak
but not as drunk as i get everytime one of your friends slept with you in this bed
and offering me a spot there when you couldn't get them out the window fast
the time you offered your sister
and now i can hardly stay home
cause its gotten insane
and i'm flipping out
your cousin shows me her scar
and now her virginity
cause she knows its ending
and its never ending
damn i loved you
and just maybe
you loved me to
but now all you love is you
and of course,
wreckless behavior
so heres some for you
theres a few lights out on a bridge tonight
and a few cables missing too
when you open the paper next to him or her tomorrow
theres a street car named desire
that didn't feel a thing in the ocean chill
and when your standing next to it and see its all twisted
raise a stone and have it say
just another decision with a ring to it,
so regrettable
