lyrics

Everybody’s got their own pain tolerance
Mine is low when the pain is low
But it’s high when the pain kicks in
Everybody breaks at one moment or another
You raise your eyes from the sunset
And the sky is a thick black leather
For love

Everybody finds a few minutes in the dark
When just as you start to drift off
A verb stiffens in your heart
Everybody lies to themselves now and then
And they weep and they wail and they tear their clothes
Like Joseph for Benjamin
And for love

Everybody’s got a certain truly weak spot
A place that if you touch a touch
The pains slides into a slot
Everybody plays a game with no one else
You always win but all you win
Is whatever you tell yourself
For love
