let the camera do its dirty work
down there in the dark
sink low, rise high, and bring back some blurry pictures
to remember all your darker moments by
Epermanent bruises on our Aknees

Dto the iowa Gcorn
Gto the rooms with the heat Alamps where the DsnakDsus9es getD bDsus9orn
Repeat verse chords once or twice and end on D
