And the work I've put between us really doesn't keep us warm
or
And this workout book between us really doesn't keep us warm
or
And this workout book between us really doesn't keep us warm
And the work I put between us. You know, it doesn't keep me warm
But my wilt gets weak.
But my will gets weak.
I've been tryin' to get down
To the heart of the mammoth.
I've been tryin' to get down
To the heart of the matter.
Make us throw our back and take it.
Make us throw off our contentment.
They let you down y'know that hurts your bride.
They let you down and hurt your pride.
They're the furry things we kill I guess
They're the very things we kill I guess
They're the furry things we kill, our guests.
They're the very things we kill, I guess.
Trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They're scary things, you kill her, I guess.
Trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They're the very things we kill, I guess.
(The business, the business)
(Forgiveness, forgiveness)
Cigarettes, cigarettes
Even if, even if
I've been dying to get down
To the heart of the medal
But my Windy City
And my thoughts seem to scamper
But I think it's a doubt, the goodness
The goodness
Even it
Even it, you don't love me anymore
I've been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if
Even if you don't love me anymore
Make us throw our fountain ticket.
Make us throw off our contentment.
Pay for it, pay for it
Even if, even if
Peacefulness, peacefulness, you don’t love me more
Even if, even if, you don’t love me anymore
