I had a dream last night it was
Something about diving
How could I know you and I were sinking
Down in the deep end
Tenuously, tenuously
Strange savagery, strange savagery
It was a season for romance and
You said it’s not dead
But hope it fell like the old leaves
Down around my head
Strenuously, strenuously
Strange savagery, strange savagery
You sing it under the sound now
Because it’s where we belong now
Your space is filled to the brim but
I’ve seen it, i’ve seen it
Skeletons, skeletons (ooooh)
Skeletons, skeletons (ooooh)
Skeletons, skeletons (ooooh)
Skeletons, skeletons (ooooh)

take away your dark shadows
let the tear then wipe them clean
i could hide under your shadows
but for now keep your eyes clean
we linger a little bit longer
despite sweat on the brow
oh we weather, always we weather
yes we weather forever we weather
yeah keep your eyes clean
yeah keep your eyes clean
yeah keep your eyes clean
yeah keep your eyes clean

can you feel my
tidal waves of apathy at
at your longing looks now
deep in the chest
dear friend mothra
false tenderness
oh she’ll trample
oh she’ll trample
keep your words now
oh i won’t be swayed call
her what you will
she’s not for decoration (no)
oh she’ll trample
oh she’ll trample
oh she’ll trample
oh she’ll trample

you close the door, wipe the mirror clean
while the imposter waits in the drivers seat
oh my regrets they’re like a switchblade knife
unfold them from my breast, admire them time to time
toss them away, toss them away, toss them away
the words from your sobering lips
the icicles that grew in the dark
stretch in from the cage and down to the heart
they build their walls rise the bad moods round
so you can sing that sound that california frown
wish them to stay, wish them to stay, wish them to stay
to sway with our slumbering hips

the wilds over the sea
one day we’ll be
blood in your teeth
oh but your smile’s still so charming to me
darling don’t fret, always you fret
oh there’s no reason yet
you’re always worried about the weather
the weather, the weather, the weather
but inside we’ll be alright
so don’t go
