Out of Love

We can do this anywhere
Hey up the hall, down the stairs
The backyard porch
Let the neighbors stare
Car parked cold night
In the moonlight
At the door of the liquor store
Where we just keep coming back for more
Who draws the line between you and me
What made up rules that we can't see
For reasons that remain a mystery
What is it about you and me?
I know it's hard
I know it's late
I know a million other ways
That I would rather spend my time
You say you understand
You say you relate
And I always take the bait
Is it too late?
Shut-down, pent-up
Red light fucked-up
Rusted diamonds, daggers dressed up
Pretty pure hostility
The wind it blows the cradle breaks
Turn babies into garden snakes
And our sun is sinking low
The vultures circle high above
Let's dive right in
Let's kill this dove
It may be lonely, but it's only out of love
I put up my guard
You say it's fate
Then you fly a million miles away
That's where you stay
This isn't a game
Do you know how it feels
Could we try to make some kind of deal
And make it real, real good
Words like bullets down the hall
I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And that's the problem
