Like couples in their twilight years
They hold out hope, d**h pulls in pairs
All the time spent here matched over there
Or that's the desperate thought at least
Car crash, plane, monoxide leak
Christians say Hell is easy
Distance from god
Distance from god
Like farm dog caught in leg trap
He gnaws until his thin bones pop
Small bites until his tendons shred
No desperate thoughts, a calm head
Whole redefined, down one piece
Animals know Heaven best
Distance from pain
Distance from pain
Like vineyard in high fire season
A decade's work soon deleted
Family runs headlong to heat
Desperate thoughts lost to flame
Father burns with his plants
The helicopter overhead
Distance from ground
Distance from ground
Like your longtime sad artist friend
The one who always talks but never ends it
Repeats, repeats bad behavior
Operating model of desperation
Moves to Boston, cries out command
Happy to see him gone
Distance from all
Distance from all
