my stab from Pittsburgh 06-06-16

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

when the summer's young and nobody has the prizes
no one wants no one and nobody in a crisis
don't go swimming past the drop off
feelin' summer for yourselves
you don't go swimming past the drop off or else

you're a pistol you're a gun and suddenly i have no prices
i'm like a friend at Dylan's (Bob Dylan) and shovels meeting in some crisis
i don't go swimming past the drop off
yeah we don't replace ourselves
there's no swimming past the drop off or else

The best part of life is by measuring gall and the past is meant to please us
johnny's been murdered, the kids are like ??? saying 'holy f*ck it's Jesus'
jerking and screaming and dogging the wings of the lonely irredecent
terribly deep and the cold are still breathing and only lacks your presence and nothing else

when the summer's done and nobody sympathizes
no one wants no one and we won't see another crisis
there's no swimming past the drop off
yeah we don't replace ourselves
there's no swimming past the drop off or else

your breath and the stakes like your raised and you're raised 'til you're strongly discompelling
deep like the sense of the willfully dead says 'forever in the telling'
circles and screams in the dark and the weeds and the lonely irredecent
jiggiling keys in the door that still creaks and it only lacks your presence and nothing else

nothing else, there's nothing else, there's no one else
