lyrics

AC on
Sunlight dripping 'cross the floor
Shoes untied
Socks are hanging
Cat paw scratching at my door

And I
I've torn through my sheets again

Coffee black
Sweetener here and there
Toast and eggs
Pretend to straighten up my hair

And the air is rich
The ground is sure
My hands are restless in their bones
And you can't hurt me anymore

Screaming my way down Glen Cove Ave
In a sea-green, eighty-six Taurus
Wondering 'bout what I would not have
And if we made the right choice for us

But I
I couldn't have chosen a better one

So I ran all the stop signs
I hit all the curbs
Flipped off the cops
Struck a fire through the 'burbs
Cut the wires of the city
Blurring the lines
Disregarding the gutless
And ignoring the fines

And the air is rich
The ground is sure
My legs are stronger than they were
And you can't hurt me anymore

And everybody's out to lunch
Out to get ahead
Thinking they can't be seen
Pretty, snarling little bunch
Sucking plasma red
And turning putrid green

So

Bring on the dayjob and empty hands
Mask a lie with good intentions
And the one thing nobody understands
Is what everybody mentions
But you
And I
And all of us
Are gonna run wild through the night sky

And they will strike at our senses
They will heave at our woes
They will stuff our heads with their tired judgments
Smack our jaws as our hunger grows
And though their lashes split our hides
Their curses plagued and pure
Our gaping maws will insatiably roar
You can't hurt me anymore

You Can't Hurt Me Anymore

You Can't Hurt Me Anymore

You Can't Hurt Me Anymore

You Can't Hurt Me Anymore
