Your cigarette ice cube blew up in my head
The kids are all tied up and ready for bed
I never once thought I'd be better off dead

So why are you running away from me?

I signed all the papers, refilled all the blanks
I cut out the bath marks with Toby Goodshanks
I'm breathing the air that you told me to save
I'm smelling the flowers I grew off your grave

So one thousand ice creams for one thousand dreams
Respectable, despicable, episcopal cure
I dried out those pipe dreams and kept them secure
So why are you running away from me?
Why are you running away from me?

I outsourced the hate, a taste I never knew
We'll visit your parents' new place at the zoo
I don't take no shit and I'll tell you no lie
He touches my stuff and then he fucking die

Coal train
Fuel reactions
Will fire away at a happy day
Diphthongs
Tongue depressors
The only tool to remain a fool

Backyard apartments fill up with my trash
35 years float away on my rash
I'm sharing my music with people I love
So why are you running away from me?

And high kicks and boot licks
And fork lifts and porn flicks
And vice grips and tulips
Mic clips and bull whips
And wheelings and dealings
And feelings and ceilings

One thousand ice creams for one thousand dreams
