Daily Dares

Artists : Les Savy Fav : Daily Dares

the pen in the pocket,
the fall down the stairs,
the fork in the socket
-thses are our daily dares.
these are my concerns,
these are my disregards.
this is what I've learned
and I've forgoten so far.
I'm making lead from gold.
I'm turning friends to err.
carries into cabals,
victories to dispair.
it hits you like a brick.
it hits you like a smell.
it doesn't bat a lash.
it brings on fainting spells.
use sentiment like aloe.
use sentiment like mace.
use sentimental explanations
of how we got to this place.
I got fucked by fate
on fate and I's first date.
and now I know I knew
breaking up is hard to do.
