Preservation Lyrics - New Inheritors - Wintersleep

That night he hurt you bad 

In that green, pastel 

Summer dress 

You'd die alone with the land 

A hollow head in its hands 

But everybody does that 

But with particular scorn, 

In polyurethane form, 

Freeze dried, stuff to the brim

- Preservation 

Hide in our hideous masks 

Your daddy's shitty 

Shake grass 

I told you I couldn't see it 

A monument of pills, 

Grocery lists, telephone bills, 

Pamphlets & dollar 

Store trinkets 

- Preservation 

But if that was how you put 

It, and if you ever willed it, 

I would embroider you 

In disaffected kisses, in 

Bleach reticent sunsets, 

Soldered animal glue 

Photos 

A hand too heavy to hold 

Lips that won't 

Do what they're told 

How do we ever begin it? 

How do we grow old?
