Give me the light years But I want the dark ones too Grief is the singer in my band She's a passenger van And a shortcut straight to the truth Learn from the nightshades Grow in the darkest places Had we not been stung so many times Would we ever have arrived At this heaven on Earth that I don't wanna waste
Pick a lucky penny up And I'll marry you for your money, love
So keep the Novocain out of my wisdom teeth wanna feel it all Salt, then sour, then sweet Wanna kiss you and write love's name on my crumbling walls Lay them at your feet With the rest of me Salt, then sour, then sweet
Come to the porch, love Look up at the perfect sky Holding the sun and the moon and the thundering June While it teaches the birds and the rain how to fly I don't need perfect No, I just wanna touch the truth I wanna cherish the trying and the living and dying And make big mistakes the way kind people do
Pick a lucky penny up And I'll marry you for your money, love
So keep the Novocain out of my wisdom teeth wanna feel it all Salt, then sour, then sweet Wanna kiss you and write love's name on my crumbling walls Lay them at your feet With the rest of me Nothing more I need (Nothing more I need) Life is love I bleed (Life is) Salt, then sour, then sweet
So sweet (So sweet) So sweet Life is love, oh So sweet (So sweet) So sweet
