[Verse 1]
When you were young, you were the king of carrot flowers
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet
And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
And dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for
[Verse 2]
This is the room, one afternoon, I knew I could love you
And from above you, how I sank into your soul
Into that secret place where no one dares to go
Your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
And dad would dream of all the differеnt ways to die
Each one a little morе than he could dare to try
