“On a Neck, On a Spit” contains familiar tweaks during its crashing instrumental break, with hard-to-peg wails that could be voices or could be strings but jack up the drama regardless.
[Part 1]
[Verse]
My messenger in disguise
Makes up for such short goodbyes
You can't come home again
Each time it's different
And the yards around your feet
Fall away while you're asleep
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Part 2]
[Verse 1]
Each day, spend it with me now
Each day, I spend it with me now
Each day, I spend it with me now
All my time, spend it with me, but...
[Verse 2]
Each day, spend it with you now
Each day, I spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you, but...
[Verse 3]
Each day, spend it with you now
Each day, I spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you, but
Out here, no one can hear me
Out here, nobody can hear me
Out here, no one can hear me
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 3 (reprise)]
Each day, spend it with you now
Each day, I spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you, but
Out here, no one can hear me
Out here, nobody can hear me
Out here, no one can hear me
