Slips And Tangles - The Weakerthans

Neon lights and slinking purple skies

Squeeze out soft regrets from all our lies

As I greet another door that opens in

To that place where we repeatedly begin

I’m tangled up in try

Slipping on I wonder why

I face

Affection, not embrace

Another urban wasteland thick with fears

Icy lights that shine like frozen television tears

Or dying embers of another day

Please tell me what it is I want to say

I’m tangled up in try

Slipping on I wonder why

I face

Affection, not embrace

Affectionate embrace
