Ruin Bound: Hit Up at the Door (Slug Trial)

Hit Up at the Door (Slug Trail)

I know you thought that you paid at the door
But those are the rules to a whole different game
Now there’s no use in crying…
But tell that to the tears!

I know you thought it was a four-letter word
It could fill in the blanks when there’s nothing to say
No, there’s no use in trying…
But tell that to the fear!

The sweetness melts…
‘Til it’s popsicle stick splinters in your tongue
Then you forget the beginning
You forget it all

She can keep your song and your favorite films
Even the getaway spot where you first got caught in her
The inside jokes and the shattered toasts
But these memories are yours

Don’t let the ground
Tarnish the flight
Don’t forget the kiss… before the bite
She can keep your song and your favorite films
But these memories are yours… to keep

I know you thought that it was ever after
As you road off into the sunset holding on to her hand
Now no need to get angry…
But tell that to the blood!

I’m sure you’re thinking it was doomed from the start
Just a kiss in the dark and a bad cut of the cards
I’m sure you’re thinking…
You’re all through with love!

Still I envy you…
With your jellyfish mouth full of sea urchins
From all the things you’ve done
All the things you’ve done

She can keep your song and your favorite films
Even the getaway spot where you first got caught in her
The inside jokes and the shattered toasts
But these memories are yours
She can keep your shirt and your Prince CDs
And all the other material things she’s left her slug trail on
Go throw a yard sail and sell Parie
But all these memories are yours…
Yeah, these memories are yours…

Don’t let the ground
Tarnish the flight
Don’t forget the kiss… before the bite
She can keep your song and your favorite films
But these memories are yours… to keep
