Lyrics of My Dinosaur Life – Peel

The world on your side of the bed
scales up from hour to hour
it’s made of kisses on the neck
and PJs with flowers
and from the small side where I am
the nutshell that you left me
I see the light seeping through the glass
light you up in your hairpins
and the fine dust slowly dances around you

I will let you get some sleep
when the street is going nowhere
when the asphalt burns our wheels
when we’re driving through the sleet
and you’ll let me get some sleep
when bad words fall all over
when the years will crack my skin
so deep it can kill me
but you sewed up your heart so much
you’ll know how to heal me

The world from my side of the bed
has been a queen size wasteland
where demons coming from my head play in emo airbands
but then you broke into my bed
like rain that molds this dry loam
you’re drawing lines and changing maps
turn this hell into a home
my hand’s a craft that sails your weaving silhouette

I will let you get some sleep
when the street is going nowhere
when the asphalt burns our wheels
when we are driving through the sleet
and you’ll let me get some sleep
when bad words fall all over
when the years will crack my skin
so deep it can kill me
but you sewed up your heart so much
you’ll know how to heal me

The world from your side of the bed
is changing the world inside my head
(you know how to heal me)
The world from your side of the bed
is changing the world inside my head
smells of fresh laundry and morning bread
(you know how to heal me)
