[Sims]
I'm in your garden now
I picked them flowers out
I went too far right now
I meant we bottomed out
You dig for higher ground
You hit the fire now
No time for stopping, tore the wires out
[Dessa]
I've got this music in my head
I've got this hole in my chest
I've got this bird in my hands
That looks like it's been crushed to d**h
But it's a players game
Ante up and pick your token
Keep one beneath your tongue for when your best gets broken
I swallowed my tongue
I bided my time
Trying to get just this one thing right
By the book but the hook just sends I'm shook
God knows I'll always bite
Cause part of the fun is the road rash (yeah)
Feeling the gravel go past (yeah)
And I don't care what they say
There's no such thing as a clean break
[Sims' Hook]
Youre too smart to say what you think
And Im too real not to say what I feel
But when it starts to sink
Ill grab the wheel
Ill keep on steering for you
Ill keep on steering for you
[Sims]
Reap out the end if I could
She walked with vengeance, walks good
She wants my head up on wood
Lopping off the chopping block
Shoulda stopped
And watching red flags coming
The red things a running
Always heavy, heavy drops to the floor
Locking the door
And thats it
Don't let her in
No veteran
Hello though, the L-O-V-O
The mold lettering
Back in the red again
Latched to a skeleton
Old friend, relax and just settle in
Enjoy that, bad medicine
Push it to the limits
Good beginnings are the toughest ones to finish
[Dessa's Hook]
I found your pale faced blue lipped God
Beneath the kitchen table
Starving, and eating paper
He showed me what you wrote and what you'd asked
Love
Nothing can live on prayers like that
Love
[Dessa]
It's not vengeance and it's not bloodlust
Justice is just a rule of law
So hold down the magician
The beautiful a**istant
Should get her turn with the saw
[Sims]
Percocet, gauze
She working them claws
Only purpose to draw more bad blood
Thats a sad war love
You know that though
You know those chains were self-imposed
Your words, my stinging molars
Sing it slow
I'll curse it while your world is sinking lower
[Dessa]
Rewind and watch it go backwards
From last lines to first words
The flash goes back in the camera
The flask back in the handbag
Don't ask
How after one phone call
He hit two lovebirds with only one stone wall
[Sims]
Valentine's day at the dead letter office
Looking for my girl like Yellow Ledbetter, 214
She said she left to find the meaning of life
Whatever that means
I wonder where she's sleeping tonight
[Dessa's Hook]

I'm in your garden now
I picked them flowers out
I went too far right now
I meant we bottomed out
You dig for higher ground
You hit the fire now
No time for stopping, tore the wires out
(Wires out)
I'm in over my head
Over my head
You dig me deep, deep, deep
You dig me deep, deep, deep (x2)
