You And Nuclear Bombs

from MISS YOU by Hesher Cats

/

lyrics

So sick and tired of the good intentions
The friends you mention
Day by day I love you even worse
I’m sick and tired of the word inventions
The wrong intentions
Week by week I get what I deserve
You’re my open nerve
And the pain off the charts
(So before)
So before this all falls apart
Let’s wave goodbye
Let’s see this through
I’ll be your apathetic fool
(And ignore)
Ignore the hopped-up stoics saying
“Baby
Don’t slip
October lasts forever, cry no more”

I came to say “you’re wrong”
I came to say we’d get back someday
The hours may pass along
But the love I have for you and nuclear bombs
Keeps burning on

I’m so sick and tired of the friendly faces
Those handshake places
(The cash prize offers)
Surrogate fathers
You can’t demand what I’d give you for free
So no one told you, your beauty’s empty
A gallon short on gasoline
So no one told you the bombs were dropping
And they’re aimed at you and me
So no one told you you’re unconvincing
When you’re staring at your screen
So no one told you the world is ending
What a day to make a scene

(Baby
Don’t slip
October lasts forever, cry no more)

Cause I came to say “you’re wrong”
I came to say we’ll get back someday
The hours may pass along
But the love I have for you and nuclear bombs
Is burning on

Lately
We’ve been
Charting course to carve out our own star
(Now we’ve got)
Camera crews and grips
The vice of sunshine clamped down o’er my heart
It’s not too late to…
It’s not too late to start

But I came to say “you’re wrong”
I came to say we’ll get back someday
The hours may pass along
But the love I have for you
I came to say you’re wrong
I came to say we’d get back someday
The hours may pass along
But the love I have for you

So you came to say “I’m wrong”
You came to say you’ll chance the heartbreak
The days will soon be gone
And the love we shared between the nuclear bombs is burning on

(Oh, I think you’re burning…)
