lyrics

We wrench and struggle together.
But baby, we're dogs on tethers.
And whether we could ever
chew it through,
at least it gives us something to do.

With blisters on my hand
white as a new fridge
bulging like bagpipes under my skin,
I grab ahold and pull.
And it's just pure futility.
But it's because we're bored that we
wrench and struggle together.
But baby, we're dogs on tethers.
And whether we could ever
chew it through,
at least it gives us something to do.

You say, "Come back to New Hampshire."
But darling, we're bugs in amber.

And Lily, that city will get bored of you, too.
But at least you'll give it something to use
and chew.
