Cease and Desist

[Verse 1]
Sneaky children bite their tongues
And sleep now 'til it's done
Beneath their pillows hide their guns
We'll make it soon enough

Flies, fluorescent bulbs at night
You told me on the porch
That they will always fly into the light
Even knowing it's a trap

I know you've got teeth, really shiny teeth
But you act like a deflation isn't sad

[Verse 2]
Tear the fronts off houses
Don't be mad at the actors for their lines
Even if they stand the test of time
Can't read the words to give them life

Heard you counting sheep
Tired from rehearsing all your lines
You follow yours, I'll follow mine
Let's absolutely give up
Let's absolutely give up
Let's absolutely give up
Let's absolutely give up

[Bridge]
And it's really such a lie
That we only have our ends
When you're listless down the line
This'll wake you up again
This is eating at your mind
This is only half alive
Alive

[Chorus]
You're raining hard
You're raining hard

You're raining hard
You're raining hard
