I Love You Too, Death Lyrics - Mgmt

Who is much more than a friend, 

But never by my side? 

All beginnings are an end, 

In the blackness there's a light 

Maybe you will only read 

One or two letters at the most 

Shipping crates might line the streets, 

Every stranger is a ghost 

Cashiers won't deduct the pain, 

Loneliness sleeps on the couch 

Only noticing the stain 

Once the color's faded out 

Let's go camping in the cold, 

Make a fire, buy a tent 

Envision leather getting old, 

Re-send pigeons that were sent 

Try to memorize your smell, 

It reminds me of a field 

Crickets clearer than a bell 

Have all their guys recast in steel 

Birds don't cry when echoes quit, 

They trail off into the fog 

Autumn hurts far less than sticks, 

Knowing winter's five feet tall 

Generations of defeat 

All assuming your the worst 

They never tied the cans 

To the back end of a hearse 

Take your hand against my own, 

If there's a finger I can grip 

Reassure me at the ace 

Mine's a black heart you could flip 

I've come to terms with what I have, 

What's been given, what's been asked 

Turn my back against the sea, 

And beg the serpent for a dance 

But in the red dirt muddy towns, 

Celebration of the dark 

Children walking hand in hand 

With the pygmies in the park 

I can't touch you only once, 

You always leave me wanting more 

So keep my feet within the house, 

And stick my toes just past the door 

Let me know when I'm in love, 

Let me die when I'm in love
