These United States - Life&Death She&I lyrics

Artist: These United States

album: What Lasts


I went to see a painting
I only found a frame
I entered the way I'd later leave
And left the way I came
I left under a crumbling arch
I walked right through the stone
My one foot following the other
The only way I know
I'm just a-biding my time
I'm just a-biding my time
'Till I die
'Till I die
Still, there are many things I've learned to love about life
I said, "I'm just a Mama's boy, aching for a little affection"
She said, "I'm just a Daddy's girl, dying for a little direction"
How's that for traction
And now, I'm just a-biting my tongue
I'm just a-biting my tongue, useless and young
Useless and young
Still, there's a certain relief when you're under the gun

I said, I'm just a Mama's boy, talking towards a possible treasure
She said, I'm just a Daddy's girl, looking for a meaningful lecture
Let's get together, and oh
We'll just a-bide all our time
We'll just hold all our tongues like we knew how to die
Do we know how to die?
I hear that's a corner to turn at the end of the line
You go to see a painting
You only find a frame
You enter the way you'll later leave
And leave the way you came
