Eclipsed by a Dying Sun

My knees shake
My back breaks
I clench my teeth so fucking hard my jaw aches

Katy's on a spaceship, honey
And we still don't have enough money
To pay my funeral bills
Hey, isn't that funny?

We've locked ourselves inside a burning home
And everybody knows
But that's the way it goes
We're climbing up a ladder made of bones
To a glass house full of stones
And everybody knows
But that's just the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

Can't remember the last time it snowed
Castle Rock, castle in a fish bowl
I'll forego chemo, I suppose
Delay. Deny. Depose.

Apartheid builds electric cars
Starvation flies you to the stars
Broken promises will land you on Mars
Name a future as bright as ours

We've locked ourselves inside a burning home
And everybody knows
But that's the way it goes
We're climbing up a ladder made of bones
To a glass house full of stones
And everybody knows
But that's just the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

Bone Ladder

Baby, what are you crying about?
What are you afraid of dying without?
What are you worried I'm lying about?
Together, we'll work it out

Baby I know you feel lost in the noise
Maybe you don't feel like you have a choice
But tell me what you need and I'll rejoice
At the sound of your beautiful voice

Baby, I can see you walking the line
Between collapse and "everything's fine"
I just wanna know what's on your mind
Help me help you to leave it behind

Seep into my lungs, I'll hold you in
Tattoo your anxiety on my skin
Drown me in the pain you hold within
And when I resurface, drown me again
