Verse

 keep climbing into my head without knockin'

 and you fix yourself there like a map pin

 on this ghost of this street where i'm livin'

 i'm in a chrysalis and i'm snowed in

Chorus

darling, darling that dam's gonna give

 it's inevitable the way that you live

bottles in brown paper and a mouth that slurs

 all the shit that it stirs

 let that dogwood blossom

 there'll be hell to pay in heaven

 for you take every stray home

Verse

 what happens when you're into deep to break

loneliness keeps you constantly awake

 what happens when the passage of time appears

 you see yourself as a child and it brings you to tears

 you say that you're troubled and you always have been

 uncomfortable in your own skin

 so you contemplate the riverbed

 turn off the dark thoughts in your head

Chorus

darling, darling that dam's gonna give

 it's inevitable the way that you live

bottles in brown paper and a mouth that slurs

 all the shit that it stirs

 let that dogwood blossom

 there'll be hell to pay in heaven

 for you take every stray home
