lyrics

I have an iron parachute
attached to a heart made of feathers.
I’ve got a key tied to a kite
of a smile in her bad weather.

But it don’t keep me up at night,
the crooked world around my straight line.
I’ll never understand.
What it means to be a man.
But that’s fine.

I have a bustling bee hive
in my mind hunting for honey,
and I’ve never met the queen of her
under my blankets of blood-soaked money.

But it don’t keep me up at night,
the crooked world around my straight line.
I’ll never understand.
What it means to be a man.
But that’s fine.

I have a spiral rainbow crane
that lifts me out of my bleakness
that runs on the fuel of lovers and friends
who don’t judge me for my weakness.

But it don’t keep me up at night,
the crooked world around my straight line.
I’ll never understand.
What it means to be a man.
But that’s fine.
