These tire tracks zigzag your torso like the devil's self portrait the car accident, the skin graft treatment, the flower baskets, the wincing relatives You bid her farewell then you got in your car and that's the last thing that you can recall and when they pulled you out, you didn't know your name, exploding semi truck blurred your face with flame You met Jane four years ago today, dancing at some vomit stained frat party her newspaper gown, her flashing headline brown, her violent gypsy dance, her tired underpants Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Rhymes with pity now Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Rhymes with sympathy now Jane let you touch her and feel her and she was so free like a pineapple in a tree but You said it's dangerous to be so intimate, you know it's dangerous, dangerous, dangerous Jane said when she laid on her back the sun hit her body like an ugly landscape but Some things never get better, Like used cars and bad livers, So you traded her in for a better looking brand One with fake porno tits, A padlock on her lips A disposable tan Biodegradable hands And back at the hospital you got no visitors at all, but she visits you in your sleep, and that Newspaper gown is always on fire (x2) She met him a week after you left her When you tossed out her touch to the garbage collector. He talked her out of her skirt in his beer-soaked apartment And then they did all the things You never said that you wanted. And the sirens are laughing underneath your skull And your thoughts are turning dull, callous and cold Yesterday you gave your burden a name Yesterday you gave your burden a face And that burden, looks an awful lot like her Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love rhymes with pity now Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Rhymes with symathy now Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Oh
