THE SHINS - KISSING THE LIPLESS

Called to see if your back 
was still aligned and your sheets
were growing grass all on the corners of your bed

But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves
it has too much to do with me
and secretly I want to bury in the yard
the grey remains of a friendship scarred

You told us of your new life there 
you got someone comin' around
gluing tinsel to your crown 
he's got you talking pretty loud 
you berate remember your ailing heart and your criminal eyes 
you say you're still in love
if it's true what can be done
it's hard to leave all those moments behind

You tested your metal of doe's skin and petals
while kissing the lipless
who bleed all the sweetness away

PHANTOM PLANET - WISHING WELL

It cursed us all on our way home
We passed the sights like passing stones
And I will never go back there again
The tourists and the army men
The prostitutes this evening
Will start to sink under my skin
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

He is the shrieks I am the fear
That yelling man rings in my ears
Out of his mind he's my conscience
Hour after hour pill after pill
He is my bellyache I've taken so much medicine to kill
I know there's something wrong
'Cause this night just drags on and on
The clock still says it won't be long
'Til all your hard earned money's gone
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

I will never go back there again
The tourists and the army men
The prostitutes this evening
Will start to sink under my skin
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

NEXT.
