Find yourself a lover
Give it to another like I did
Don’t know ’til you try it
Break it so you buy it like I did
And if you wanted something better
Why’d you never bother to find it

Sit in isolation all the time
I’ll be on the ocean in your eyes
Tell it on the mountain he’s arrived
Everybody’s famous for a while
So long, so long

Flies are on the food
Sleeping with your shoes on the sofa
Blinds down in the day
Won’t somebody break up my coma
And if you ever felt the presence
Would you ever let it control you

Sit in isolation all the time
I’ll be on the ocean in your eyes
Tell it on the mountain he’s arrived
Everybody’s famous for a while
So long, so long

Prescribe me your elixir
Needed just a bit more to save me
Songs up in the attic
The moths are eating blankets for babies
And if you lost your way to heaven
Buy another ladder from Jacob
Needed it to matter
I don’t care if your family hates it

Sit in isolation all the time
I’ll be on the ocean in your eyes
Tell it on the mountain he’s arrived
Maybe we’ll be famous when we die
So long, so long, so long
