Lover can you tell me
How to run faster than the dogs
I was bound so tightly
I forgot I forgot what I was

I wrote you a letter
Tried to tell you why
I don't know what works better
The words or the shiver in my eye

But here we are an anchor point
A meeting of misdeals
You at your edge
Me at mine
And those teeth
Oh they're tearing at my heels
The odds are stacked
Parallax

You came on so quickly
A terminal release
Forgot what I brought with me
My punk-ghost party piece

And it will rise so hell bent
Collar to the wind
My everlasting accident
I have sinned I have sinned I have sinned
But here we are an anchor point
A meeting of misdeals
You at your edge
Me at mine
And those teeth
Oh they're tearing at my heels
The odds are stacked
Parallax

Sometimes just your hand is all it takes
To get me through
Maybe all I needed
Was a different point of view

But here is is a certainty
An ink-blot test, a sign
Me at my edge
You at yours
And those viewpoints won't ever quite align
Our odds are stacked
Parallax
