New Order T-Shirt

How you tapped on a box of blue American Spirits At Anyway Cafe a little under a month Before the ashes and management capital files filled the streets How we wove through the cones walking home To the place on Atlantic you shared with your hilarious sister Kicking off your black flats, demolished and laughing I keep what I can of you Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds You in my New Order t-shirt Holding a cat and a glass of beer When you rescued me from the customs cops in Hawaii When I shut down the place with my Japanese novelty bomb And your dad came along How you had me lay down for a temperature check With the cool of your hand on the back of my neck When I said "I think I'm finally going crazy for real" I keep what I can of you Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds You in my New Order t-shirt Holding a cat and a glass of beer I flicker through I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket You in a Kentucky aquarium Talking to a shark in a corner You in the bath on the phone Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving Than staying in it alone You in the bath on the phone Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving Than staying in it alone When you cried at the beach and recovered in seconds And said everything's fine but I knew that it wasn't Then you stayed out of reach of me for almost a year How you looked like a poster of a 70's movie Standing outside at the base of your magazine skyscraper Waiting for me to go drinking downtown I keep what I can of you Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds You in my New Order t-shirt Holding a cat and a glass of beer I flicker through I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket You in a Kentucky aquarium Talking to a shark in a corner I keep what I can of you Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds You in my New Order t-shirt Holding a cat and a glass of beer I flicker through I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket You in a Kentucky aquarium Talking to a shark in a corner
