Vigilantes of Love
Perishable Goods
[Verse 1]
She's a given, could be a gift
Down the shaft, and something's ripped away
You got wise long ago
What she's taken has long been spent
Speak your lines under the influence
Fade into the dream

[Chorus 1]
My coat-pocket dreams and fears
Drag them out across the table here
Trust the signs
Exactly as they lay
Here we kneel, kiss the sky
Lose yourself inside the question why
God's eye
Holds you in its gaze

[Verse 2]
The unjust judge has summoned up
The prisoner for more extensive questioning
The courtroom of shame is full
Regardless of the missing persons
Their whereabouts, and God, you hope they show up
A moment here too soon
[Chorus 2]
My coat-pocket dreams and fears
Drag them out across the table here
Trust the signs
Exactly as they lay
Here we kneel, kiss the sky
I have learned to trust the alibis
God's eye
Holds you in its gaze
Oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
If they want your story, well
Those who are familiar can contend
To be that far behind
Hey, bartender a partial block
Around the heart and loneliness, a car that's empty
And always overfull

[Chorus 1]
My coat-pocket dreams and fears
Drag them out across the table here
Trust the signs
Exactly as they lay
Here we kneel, kiss the sky
Lose yourself inside the questions why
God's eye
Holds you in its gaze
In its gaze
In its gaze
