Pinback - Bloods On Fire lyrics

"Bloods On Fire"

Brain to head, what is that for?

Vein to vein, torn and sore

Carpet so thick and worn

Blanketed, dark, and warm

Calm yourself, calm yourself

Blood's on fire, blood's on fire

Break the bed, burn the floor

Head to head, twisted, sore

Accident, never warned

Can't explain, nevermore

It's not in the spark

That's not in your eye

Like we used to talk

It's not in the phrase

That's not in the language

That we used to talk

Not in the face, you missed me. There.

Its not in the science

That we didn't learn

When we used to talk

Sit outside, penetance

Just let me know

Please say the words

I'm all right, what was that sound?

Woke me up, now you're around

Pick me up, drag me around

Don't forget to breathe now

Calm yourself, calm yourself

Blood's on fire, blood's on fire

We all forgot

We're all lost in autumn

Calm yourself, calm yourself

It's not in the dead shocks

That dropped underneath us

When we used the car

Its not in the strings

We didnt pull to move you around the floor

Where are you now?

Pacing a faceless maw somewhere vague

You're not outside, you're not inside, you're not anymore

Where did you go?

Here's to the pranks we never pulled

And never will
