lap of luxury in a roach motel in sault-st-marie
girl working the counter asks me what i know about luxury
i go to pack my bags when the conversation lags
i can't say much and it doesn't mean much to me
stayed up all night building the tower of babel for you
you are bleeding and i don't know what to do
winter's coming in and the snow falls on your skin
desperately we try to wrap the wound
i would pluck out my eye if it offends, you were six hundred miles away
in the only city i had ever loved, the city i would soon betray
bluegrass band in the background winding down
we both know how your soul gets around
you begin to plead your case and a smile twists your face
when i stumbled upon you, i didn't know what i'd found
you flicker and you vanish in the swiftly dimming light
in a bookstore in iowa city i thought i felt all right
i thought i'd broken free but my life caught up with me
there are shattered screams on the radio waves tonight
i would pluck out my eye if it offends, you were six hundred miles away
in the only city i had ever loved, the city i would soon betray
we crashed our ships in spite of the lighthouse on the shore
i don't know if i can withstand our dark horse dreams anymore
this is only just the start of the breaking of your heart
i had a dream that i was called to war
