"Patriotism Of First Tiger Called Into Question" lyrics

When the bomb goes off

Let's stay awake
I'll be riding that high all day
I am barreling forward in dark space
Stuck with you and I'm struggling with my shoes
How does everyone do this

My dichotomy burns a hole in me
And it fills me up when I go to sleep
We could talk a lot when the bomb goes off
I'll be looking up singing we all have to let go

I got this spirit from my father
Who knows if it'll hold any longer
It carries such a weight it seems
It breaks apart in apathy
The broken things inside of me
And the broken things inside of you
Dance slowly now around the ring
My love, you made a waste of me

Breathe it in, breathe it out
Settle into the couch 'cause I'm weird
And I love when it rains all day
Love the view and I'm stumbling over you
Have I lost this time?

My dichotomy burns a hole in me
And it feels me up even when I sleep
We could talk a lot when the bomb goes off
I'll be looking up, God bless, I bet it looks so pretty

I got this spirit from my father
Who knows if it'll hold any longer
It carries such a weight it seems
It breaks apart in apathy
The broken things inside of me
And the broken things inside of you
Dance slowly now around the ring
My love, you made a waste of me

I guess we had to get there sometime
Looking back, God, we got here fast
So many things that couldn't stay
I'm careless and I miss those days
But they're gone, we're marching on their bones
At least they didn't have to die alone
If I could only keep one good thing
I'd take a little clarity

I got this spirit from my father
Who knows if it'll hold any longer
It carries such a weight it seems
It breaks apart in apathy
The broken things inside of me
And the broken things inside of you
Dance slowly now around the ring
My love, you made a waste of me
