Year Twins - Poor Evans Lyrics

Pulsing pains
Remembering the previous winter
We parked on the side of the river
It doesn't matter
We came and left, the time we spent
We doubled down on the safest bets
So futile, so brutal
Waste the talents
That kept us so useful
Confess, a minor loss
A minor victory to hold us off
Another complaint
We strain to convey
Order the murderer to clean up
The bloodstains
Death comes quick
Just a coward demanding respect
Tight lipped, stuck pig
Just a corpse left to convict
I watched your father's eyes fall to the floor
Read the lines on his face
They were begging for comfort
All this dreaming was wishful and sterile
We should have been careful
How could we have predicted
He'd be part of the cracks in the pavement?
Confess, a minor loss
A minor victory to hold us off
Another complaint
We strain to convey
Order the murderer to clean up
The bloodstains
'cause death comes quick
Just a coward demanding respect
Tight lipped, stuck pig
Just a corpse left to convict
No faith left to give
Dig in our pockets, extortion for living
Broken from the beginning
Fall into the moors
Pull yourself out
We're not going
But we can't hold out
'til we're sure it's clear
The meaningful words
That we never said
They'll mean nothing soon enough
When the future is tearing us
Limb from limb
We drown
In the liquified corpses
And muddled remains of
Ones that we love
And everyone we've f*cked
All life is so worthless
But every life is worth it
'til the end
'til we've burned the sky
And humanity is swallowed whole
We'll deserve what we're given
