Tilt You Back

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I saw two faces in the light, of a dead end streetBegged them for a smoke and we started to speakCounting bricks in the wall, and my voice cracksI said "you see I've got this boyAnd he don't love me back. "So we walked for a bit, and jesse grabs me hardHe said "come back down to earthFrom where ever you are. "But his words don't register, I'm lost in your eyesAnd this dial tone will kill me by the end of nightCome on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swimI want your taste on my tongueWon't you warm my bones within?Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty streetYou can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easilyNow it's getting kind of late, so I thank them for their timeTrip over sidewalk blocks and slurred wordsThat I know aren't even mineJack's a better friend than jesseCause he puts the pain to easeThough I know I'll be alone tonightDespite how much I bleed?Come on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swimI want your taste on my tongueWon't you warm my bones within?Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty streetYou can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easilyHalf closed eyes and my shoes untiedKnow I'll be falling asleep in my levi's tonightJack's a lonely friend, despite what I intendKnow I'll be waking up to messages I couldn't send?Come on and wrap me up, let me tilt you back and swimI want your taste on my tongueWon't you warm my bones within?Reveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty streetYou can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easilyReveal yourself to me, on this dark and empty streetYou can feel yourself in me, swallow you down so easily
