Paper Bird - Milk lyrics
[Paper Bird - Milk lyrics]
If it weren't for you
I'd still talk in riddles
And use my thumbs only for empty space
To emphasise the awkward silence
In the middle between not-so-important words
And if it weren't for you
I'd still know how to stop
With boundaries like barbed wire frontiers
And only one dog door
Hidden somewhere to cross
I can't even see the border from here
You see, I don't think you're wasting time
If I could just make all
The inner clocks stop ticking
We might meet in the dark and quickly
Wipe the blood off our mouths
Oh, I'd still think I
Know what you're thinking
And if it weren't for you
I'd still be so damn good at lying
And believing that love's some
Stupid card trick
Made out of jacks, queens, hearts
And diamonds
With you I'd gladly drink too much milk
Until it makes our stomachs sick
With you I'd gladly drink too much milk
Until it makes our stomachs sick
With you I'd drink, with you I'd drink
With you I'd drink, with you I'd drink
I'd still talk in riddles
And use my thumbs only for empty space
To emphasise the awkward silence
In the middle between not-so-important words
And if it weren't for you
I'd still know how to stop
With boundaries like barbed wire frontiers
And only one dog door
Hidden somewhere to cross
I can't even see the border from here
You see, I don't think you're wasting time
If I could just make all
The inner clocks stop ticking
We might meet in the dark and quickly
Wipe the blood off our mouths
Oh, I'd still think I
Know what you're thinking
And if it weren't for you
I'd still be so damn good at lying
And believing that love's some
Stupid card trick
Made out of jacks, queens, hearts
And diamonds
With you I'd gladly drink too much milk
Until it makes our stomachs sick
With you I'd gladly drink too much milk
Until it makes our stomachs sick
With you I'd drink, with you I'd drink
With you I'd drink, with you I'd drink
