[Verse 1: David Bazan]
Your worried mistress thinks you need
Physical exertion and vitamin D
Misunderstanding the real enemy
Sunlight and gravity

[Chorus: David Bazan]
Kept secrets flow down crooked slopes
And cut a hundred riverbeds in valley floors below
Every liar knows he'll die alone
Still you hide your hope and hedge your bets until the snow
Is white with ocean foam

[Verse 2: David Bazan]
Down on her hardwood bedroom floor
You pen the doctrine of preemptive war
Gladly performed for deafening applause
Then you call it sabotage

[Chorus: David Bazan]
When kept secrets flow down crooked slopes
And cut a hundred riverbeds in valley floors below
Every liar knows he'll die alone
Still you hide your hope and hedge your bets until the snow
Is white with ocean foam
