lyrics:
=======
something broke, my elastic snapped
i'm splitting from the rigging of my
 ribs
nice shirt, nice eyes, they match 
perfectly
but nothing should be perfect today

i'm kicking up the dirt, baby if i 
burst
bury me and write my epitaph
if this is it

a warm safe place today wont fix a 
thing
i huffed and puffed and blew the 
whole place down
i'm underneath this temporary 
disease
there is no patron saint of days 
like these

i'm kicking up the dirt, baby if i 
burst
bury me and write my epitaph
if this is it

bury me and write my epitaph
