Try This Instead

from Have You Ever Done Something Evil?

Lyrics

Just read my rights
in the cadence we agreed on
crush every pill
wrap me in love
dig all the holes
try not to deceive your mind

it's hard to start again
in the shadow of malediction
rename the moons
tune up the bike
bust through the door
don't forget what's at stake

try this instead
i'll be here forever in weekly increments

what's behind the words
you've selected for me this evening
sing no regret
light up the board
open your heart
don’t forget not to die

Let's punch up the storylines
we'll show up covered in brine
yes, we come from the ocean you see that, we said so
we're all dressed up for someone to come home

try this instead
i'll be here forever in weekly increments
