Tilt You Back
I saw two faces in the light, of a dead end street.
Begged them for a smoke and we started to speak.
Counting bricks in the wall, and my voice cracks,
I said “You see I’ve got this boy, and he don’t love me back.”
So we walked for a bit, and Jesse grabs me hard,
he said “Come back down to earth from where ever you are.”
But his words don’t register, I’m lost in your eyes.
And this dial tone will kill me by the end of night.
Come on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swim.
I want your taste on my tongue, won’t you warm my bones within?
Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty street.
You can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easily.
Now it’s getting kind of late, so I thank them for their time.
Trip over sidewalk blocks and slurred words, that I know aren’t even mine.
Jack’s a better friend than Jesse cause he puts the pain to ease,
though I know I’ll be alone tonight despite how much I bleed…
Come on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swim.
I want your taste on my tongue, won’t you warm my bones within?
Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty street.
You can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easily.
Half closed eyes and my shoes untied, know I’ll be falling asleep in my Levi’s tonight.
Jack’s a lonely friend, despite what I intend, know I’ll be waking up to messages I couldn’t send…
Come on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swim.
I want your taste on my tongue, won’t you warm my bones within?
Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty street.
You can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easily.
Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty street.
You can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easily.
