Quick As Rainbows

As she walks home tonight
To her house and ignores the stars
She knows theres no-one waiting
Tomorrow isnt clear enough
To give her strength or make her want
To wake and walk in the morning.
And theres hope that Ive taken
And theres drugs to make it painless
And men, were quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And Ive gone, like shed always known.
As I walk home tonight,
To my house and ignore the stars,
I know theres someone waiting,
Tomorrow is very clear,
It gives me strength and makes me want
To wake and walk in the morning
But theres hope that Ive taken
And theres drugs to make it painless
And men, were quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And Ive gone, like shed always known.
There were times of troubled dreams of hate
Id take her down to the lake with our love
Watch it swim, wed watch it drown
Watch our love bob up and down.
And theres hope that Ive taken
And theres drugs to make it painless
And men, were quick as rainbows,
Always rare to keep her thirsty
And Ive gone, like shed always known.
Always corpses at breakfast time.
