Unresponsive Ears Lyrics

Army Navy Unresponsive Ears

Do you remember
Losing our minds
On the urgency of being alive
And we shuddered at the frozen time
That scared us to death

There was movement in the dark
In the courtyard under the arc
And one day when we turn to dust
We'll see who's there

I recall it in my palm
A photo of a poison hall
And a naked woman's careful charm
And ??

Sweet to sour
She's the same
By buckets of a quizzical rain
And these unresponsive ears could hear them say "We'll stay."

And that's when we know
I will be all right
The words that we spoke
Kept me up every night

And that's when we know
What is in sight
You are forever
And all the treasure

Constant comment slipping down inside my stomach
Ghosts of proud little girls
Since we smelled it
I fought it in my head to end it
Streets sweep go on and on

I feel like dreaming
Somehow I can't fight this feeling
Sleeping, waiting it out

And that's when we know
I will be all right
The words that we spoke
Kept me up every night

And that's when we know
That is in sight
You are forever
Now now now forever
