The Only Thing 4:44

the only thing that keeps me from driving this car
half light jacknife into the canyon at night
signs and wonders, perseus aligned with a skull
slaying medusa, pegasus alight from us all
do I care if I suvive this
bury the dead where they're found
in the veil of great surprises
I wonder did you love me at all
the only thing that keeps me from guarding my arm
crosshatch, warm bath, holiday in after dark
signs and wonders, water-stain riding the wall
daniel's message, blood of the moon on us all
do I care if I despise this, nothing else matters I know
in the veil of great disguises, how do I live with your ghost
should I tear my eyes out now
everything I see returns to you somehow
should I tear my heart out now
everything I feel returns to you somehow
I want to save you from your sorrow
the only reason why I continue at all
faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb
signs and wonders, sea lion caves in the dark
blind faith, god's grace, nothing else left to impart
do I care if I survive this
bury the dead where they're found
in the view of great surprises, hold my head till I drown
should I tear my eyes out now
before I see too much
should I tear my arms out now
I want to feel your touch
should I tear my eyes out now
everything I see returns to you somehow
should I tear my hear out now
everything I feel returns to you somehow
