Grasshoppers

I could wait until a better night to tell you the truth
With one end tied to the doorknob, one end tied to the tooth
Or I could knock it over, break it, and spill it all
And you could try to catch the pieces as they fall
You know it's not exactly the most exciting time
When the blood on the sheets is always only mine
And the holes in the wall were designed so carefully
And the grasshoppers never sing for me

You don't live here, you just rent a room
And if you go out, don't come home soon
But if you decide, you're staying in instead
We'll fuck on the floor so you can't hear the bed

I could wait until a better night to tell you the news
We control our destinies so we're all destined to lose
And I keep trying to find the things I might have missed
Why would anybody ever trust us with this?
You know it's not exactly the most exciting time
When the blood on the sheets is always only mine
And the holes in the wall were designed so carefully
And the grasshoppers never sing for me

You don't live here, we just share a womb
And if you go out, don't come home soon
But if you decide, you're staying in instead
We'll fuck on the floor so you can't hear the bed

You don't live here, you just rent a room
And if you go out, don't come home soon
But if you decide, you're staying in instead
We'll fuck on the floor so you can't hear the bed

I've been dying in a comfortable bed
And you've been leaving all your shit in my head
And they've been talking and it's not looking good
And we've been thinking and we think we should
