Hungry Mouth - Nurses

When I was born I was one solid color

I did not know it was the same sad color of my stare

When she gets off work tonight

When she gets those bruises don’t you know its

Cause I made her my wife

I earned it When I was young I was that same solid pale blue

I did not know my head was so full it started spittin out straw

When she gets off work tonight

When she gets those bruises don’t you know its

Cause I made her my wife

I earned it Where’d you get that hold on me It’s like a firework sittin in my family tree (x2)

When I grew up I was a shining white pillar of salt

I did not know it was the same white falling to the earth
