Lyrics

In my coat
On winters skin
I’m walking backwards over bridges
To the place where we begin

The cameras watch
But I won’t stay long
There’s a guard already approaching
Waving his hands to move me on

And if you insist
How can I resist?
Love is, like nothing else is

The colored copies
We get to keep
The rest is burning up in baskets
In labs where rats and monkeys sleep

This house on fire
This open call
Has me scaling back the plans I had
For climbing up this wall

Like nothing else is, like nothing else is
Like book sleeves on subjects like guidance
Like postscripts with someone in silence
Where classroom daydreams disappear
Like faint notes left on a mirror

Say goodbye
Before you leave
Keep your toothbrush wrapped in a sandwich bag
And your heart rolled in your sleeve

Love is like nothing else it, like nothing else is, like nothing else
