We saw the western coastI saw the hospitalNursed the shoreline like a woundReports of lover's trystWere neither clear nor descriptWe kept it safe and slowThe quiet things that no one ever knows[Chorus: x2]So keep the blood in your headAnd keep your feet on the groundIf today's the day it gets tiredToday's the day we drop outGave up my body and bedAll for an empty hotelWasting words on lower cases and capitalsI contemplate the day we wedYour friends are boring me to deathYour veil is ruined in the rainBy then it's you I can do withoutThere's nothing new to talk aboutAnd though our kids are blessedTheir parents let them shoulder all the blame[Chorus: x2]So keep the blood in your headAnd keep your feet on the groundIf today's the day it gets tiredToday's the day we drop outGave up my body and bedAll for an empty hotelWasting words on lower cases and capitals[Bridge: x2]I lie for only youAnd I lie well...Hallelu...[Chorus: x2 (words from bridge continued in the background)]So keep the blood in your headAnd keep your feet on the groundToday's the day it gets tiredToday's the day we drop outGave up my body and bedAll for an empty hotelWasting words on lower cases and capitals
