The Sound of Coming Down Lyrics
quit hiding that you're trying to get close to me
i believe it's the one thing you said without smiling
it's dubious or it's cruel
i'm losing my homemade cool
are you fueling the loose ends?
are you cooling your jets?
you hide in my bed and i'm hiding in my bed
i can't face the cold, grey cold
you can't play nursemaid and be the crazy patient
hey, you know nobody's chasing us
this is the honest sound of coming down
press your lips against the cool glass of my face
bear down on the lost art of having skin
one false move came too late
to save your favorite place from the silent sin
are you needling me for not knowing the date?
can you see me better for all this finger-tracing?
at least we have blankets in our cage
the last time you remembered to put out your fire
you said: hey!
i believe it's the one thing you said without smiling
it's dubious or it's cruel
i'm losing my homemade cool
are you cooling your jets?
you hide in my bed and i'm hiding in my bed
i can't face the cold, grey cold
you can't play nursemaid and be the crazy patient
this is the honest sound of coming down
bear down on the lost art of having skin
one false move came too late
to save your favorite place from the silent sin
can you see me better for all this finger-tracing?
at least we have blankets in our cage
the last time you remembered to put out your fire
you said: hey!

Uh, it's about acid. It's about the 'coming down' off acid and the really stupid conversations you have while tripping.
I think it's about a relationship which is cooling by routine, nothing about acid.

how amazing is that? very. i just started listening to the long winters and they really good songs and lyrics. i wish there was a bit more discussion on them though.
not quite sure, all i can come up with is like having a relation ship in wich you dont know were your partner is coming from as if they have 2 personalities "you can't play nursemaid and be the crazy patient" all i could come up w/ sorry.
