Birds of a Feather Lyrics
Where she walks, no flowers bloom
He's the one I see right through
She's the Absinthe on my lip
The splinter in my fingertips
But who could do without you?
And who could do without you?
She's the sea I'm sinkin' in
He's the ink under my skin
Sometimes I can't tell where I end
Where I leave off and he begins
But who could do without you?
And who could do without you?
Oh, we're a pretty, pretty pair
Yes, we are
All, all the king's horses
And all of his men
Couldn't tear us apart
Dancing with a ball and chain
Through it all we still remain
Butterflies around the flame
Till ashes, ashes, we fade away
He's the one I see right through
She's the Absinthe on my lip
The splinter in my fingertips
And who could do without you?
He's the ink under my skin
Sometimes I can't tell where I end
Where I leave off and he begins
And who could do without you?
Yes, we are
All, all the king's horses
And all of his men
Couldn't tear us apart
Through it all we still remain
Butterflies around the flame
Till ashes, ashes, we fade away

The line 'abscess on my lip' is supposed to be Absynth which is a very hard to drink alcohol.
Another tune that's gotta be about marriage. The ups and downs, the things it does to us and how it changes us. For better AND for worse.
