about

This is a song about co-dependency.

lyrics

Bar-fly turtledove
my long lost love
I pushed your skull open
with my thumb
to try and read the thoughts inside
but I can't read you anymore

Bar-fly turtledove
my long lost love
I used to feel you wake up across town
my third eye opened with your two
now I can't read you
because

You drink the wine and I crash the car
you drink the wine and I crash the car
you drink the wine and I crash the car
Bar-fly Turtledove
