The Thermals - Let Your Earth Quake, Baby Lyrics

pull me from the cold and
pass me to your shoulders
keep me dry and warm
keep me high and normal

cause i'm riding in
your strut and
lying in your gutter
drunken and confused
ready for abuse

so let your earth quake, baby

push me to the ground and
break my ears of sound
i have never heard
i have never deserved

keep me deaf and muted
slap me til i'm stupid
i'm dying for your hand
i'd die to understand

so let your earth quake
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me

i will take whatever
you give me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly

i'm feeling like a genius
i pound the wall
i've built between us
my hammer tears
with my come
i will repair

i deposit what i've felt
in the winter i can sell it
it grows in the cold
until the soil is eroded

so let your earth quake
go ahead and break me
my skin invincible
you can't phase me

i will take whatever you give me
if you pour i'll be the sieve
and i will filter just to live
so let your earth quake
baby you know me
i surrender completely
and slowly
