future of love

from still up? by Annie and the Bang Bang

/

lyrics

got a mind firecracker. mouth like a girl’s. we kiss about god, hold hands with danger. we’re just waiting for it to get weird. clouds hang over the black flowing river. streetlights on the silent water shimmer. the night is young and I burn with the future of love. your mystery fist. your bulge-in-the-cheek jawbreaker. i get all tight in my stomach when i’m near you. do i want to be with you, or just be you? which is the greater adventure? the night is young, and i burn with the future of love. we balance on train tracks and set down our nickels. throw up in the bushes and howl under bridges. an echo is yourself returning to you. an echo is yourself returning to you. you out-preach the preachers to all who will witness that god is everywhere, god is already in us. in our tight dirty tee shirts and long, flowing, wide skirts, we crash a party with our big lipstick entrance. dance in the crybaby light to spyrocker music. your eyes closed. you’re very into it. one of us is bleeding, the dogs can smell it. they’re sniffing out crotches, chewing on plastic cups. got a shot gun: i wanted to get a little high, but this is too high, son. you hold my hand like you really mean it. kiss me on the mouth like it was yours to begin with, and we go back out into the night while there’s still mystery left, in the future of love. clouds hang over the black flowing river. streetlights on the silent water dimming. i get all tight in my stomach when i’m near you. do i want to be with you, or just be you? which is the greater adventure? the night is young, and i burn with the future of love.
