They Sang As They Slew Follow

The skin's not thick enough to fight off the blows
Feel my spine cracking as I pick teeth from the floor
The skin's not thick enough to fight off the blows
See the bottletop pop off and roll on the floor

Gonna go somewhere I can shake off these wounds
Slide back in my skin
Just let it all go
Write it down for awhile between the walls and the war

There's something good
What did she say?
There's something good
It's coming our way
Why not today?

Is it unbecoming to drink pain as if it's a cure
For the impossible times that we wade through after our war?
Does it pain you to know that you're overthrown
By the shadows in the bedroom?
By the man on the board?
Don't stop smiling for me
No, I still see us by the sea as it's undone

There's something good
It's coming my way
Why not today?
There's something good
It's coming our way
What did she say?
Why won't she stay?
