"When I get back" 
Pre-break of dawn 
Hear the ring it's me 
Live from a pay phone 
Talking in the rain. 

Things pan out exactly as I say they will. 
Will I be less happy 
When I get back? 

Two hand in one glove 
As if we were poor. 
The hard up make the soup from stones 
Like the poor before them did before. 

You say the waiting could crush your heart. 

But it's nothing new to me 
Have you crave me so desperately 
But I know 
How when you need me you bleed for me, 

Though now I'm gone you fill my shoes with new 
Fans. 
Always and forever 
We are apart and may she see 

She'd be free rejoicing in distance 
If she only let me sleep. 

"Will things make less happy 
When I get back?" 

Absence makes the heart grow still. 
Abuse the hunt; confuse the kill. 
I know, I know. 

Make the dead feel deader 
Deader. 
Make the dead sleep nights with a razor 
Waiting. 
Kill the prey. 

I'll hold my child's head underwater. 
If it's a boy, I was joking 
If it's a daughter, I'll say I did what I did 
Because I had to... 
And if you find my kid later 
Tell her I laughed too. 

We just might work out fine 
Because I love you enough 
To let you give the pain that I want 
... And when you do 

I just might f*ck you 
Enough to love you. 
Once upon my night stand
Lied letters piled in columns 
Postmarked Middle Island 
Out east in the country of Solemn.
