Dave's Not Here

lyrics

(improv)
emotionally retarded 7 finger defect of a son
a hollow god, burnt stables, a pump shotgun
we waited all night for you to say something, anything
our church is gone, god we are
nothing can repair this place
the insects crawling out the pours
rotting into your face
im so angry im so angry
please just come back to me
my love, shower of disease
when the work comes will we still have broke knees
can we just breathe, forever breathe
stay the fuck away from me
(Improv)
and there was silence for a moment
in this burnt out town, blue red white
on my house, your house
what's yours is mine now
and i still can't calm myself ever ever
down with sun, up with liquor
the hard stuff only gets harder
hotter all i can stutter
stutter killer we'll wait till summer
disorder to better, but
nothing can repair this place
the insects crawling out the pours
rotting into your face
im so angry im so angry
please just come back to me
my love, shower of disease
when the work comes will we still have broke knees
can we just breathe, forever breathe
stay the fuck away from me
nervous hands trembling worthlessly
i saw you in a dream
but i can't see clearly
seizing not eating fainting into the earth breathing
dave is not here and i am just the dirt
if 5 dollars 75 cents can get us to
rotting but stainless
the gates of heaven
I will be good to you
I'll be good son
I will become the
ocean
I will become
a family man a father
but broken hearts don't matter much to
me and the sea's closing up on
me and it doesn't matter to
me and the deserts turning to
trees and we're nodding off to old dream
your friends your family
everything is burning
your friends your family
dave's not here with me
dave's not here with me
dave's not here
(Improv)
nothing can repair this place
the insects crawling out the pours
rotting into your face
im so angry im so angry
please just come back to me
my love, shower of disease
when the work comes will we still have broke knees
can we just breathe, forever breathe
stay the fuck away from me
