Songtexte Exit Route - Thea Gilmore

God's electrician sparked up the heavens once again
Heading northbound on the 710
And the Lord said "Let there be you"
Talking pension plans, medicals, and monthly tablets end to end
And I was hoping I could steal you
With my biochemical release
We were both walking, talking cigarette razor blades
Carving our initials into each others' memories

And I know I can't place blame
But this was all your idea
I just got out when I did
To prove the exit route was clear
To prove the exit route was clear

And I've seen you play dumb
But what else can you do?
I've seen you dodge my questions like bullets
But come on, honey, show me something new
Show me this amphetamine psychosis
Show me this not-quite-comatose
It's gonna drag us up for the evening
And you and I can support each other like rotting fence posts

And I know I can't place blame
But this was all your idea
I just got out when I did
To prove the exit route was clear
To prove the exit route was clear

And we both lay on the floor empty when
All our bodies and our brains gave up the fighting
And your bed slipped the black, sun-sick, demoned world
And it looked like Hell with fluorescent lighting
It looked like Hell with fluorescent lighting

And I know I can't place blame
But this was all your idea
I just got out when I did
To prove the exit route was clear
To prove the exit route was clear
To prove the exit route was clear
To prove the exit route was clear
