It lives with you for as long as you let it
Though it leaves from you, it won't let you forget it
That shine on its loafers
That gap in its smile
Will come back upon you every once in a while
The threads we save won't be enough to keep
They're threads, but they won't hold us in our sleep
For all that we borrow
is yours to take
All has to be torn apart before coming awake
You'll be an old woman by the time I come and get you
So gather everything that you want to take with you
Don't go to bed with a cigarette burning
It doesn't take long to do that kind of learning
You'll never get away with lying to the devil
'Cause the devil made the lying rules, and they ain't level
You'll be an old man when you finally come with me
Tie a string around your finger so you don't forget me
