Pianos Become the Teeth
Cripples Can’t Shiver
I'm looking more like you everyday, old man
In every way I'm feeling phantom pains
From the fire you've dropped on your legs
I'm storing my uplifting look backs
For my time in that seat, in that seat
Alone in your world, alone in your world
Just a wall away
Staying angry at the stages of the day
Your speech has gotten slow
And you've lost so much weight
The family knees have gotten weak
The family skin has gotten languid

If you put your gums in and I let mine recede
If you keep your pride I'll be your eyes, I'll be your eyes
I'll save my temper, I'll save my rage
For the hot on your hands because you know
Cripples can't shiver, cripples can't shiver
Six hours, six hours
Six hours of telling fields our health deserves more
Please don't disappear with the room
Please don't give up on going out

Spending time at a split foyer, choosing up or down
Choosing up or down, I've waited
He never came, I'm assuming life fair
The mold promises these sheets stay damp
So my lungs won't last, they won't last
But I swear I'd at least break the fingers of the hand
That dealt this to you, this to you
