lyrics

when we fight oh i want to run and light the wood afire
and I don’t wanna ever return
i dont know how we could begin to make it right,
it seems like we can only ever burn
we always get our teeth out and start to polish them,
sharpen them up nice and shiny into a hundred tiny knives
we always have this fierceness, this fire in our bellies,
we raise our hands out overhead devouring open wide and open open open open (wide)

i see no hope to ever begin to know
how to come to see another point of view
(and you don’t) ever stop screaming long enough
to hear what i'm saying, tired as it might always turn out to be
(oh listen up) there you go there you go jumping up and down
what will we have to show for all of this jumping and hollering,
I don’t know, i don’t know, how to bring it on home,
how to do something better than devouring...
in the meantime, whistle while you (work)
