Bad Books – It Never Stops

Karen Park, when your body gave ground
1 O'clock, June 6th, somehow
God hid in amphetamine waves
Margaritas and disposable days
You folded arms and I felt your heart

Speedy eyes and I want what I want
Truth cut with a generalized fear
Cash baggies and our ashtray beers

And I know, you know
I wanna love you but I can't let go
Honey, it never stops
No, it never stops
No, it never stops

Karen Park, when the culture crashed down
Copy after copy 'til the color washed out
I bet the future on an ice cream cone
I kept the secret 'til I took you home

Days split, two sides
You flipped your coin and said, "I can't decide"
Honey, it never stops
The leaves laugh, the fat burn
I know I want you but I'll wait my turn
Honey, it never stops
No, it never stops
No, it never stops

Karen Park, when the beauty bled out
Twenty years in my cotton ball mouth
You held my hand and said, "Don't let me drown"
I said, "I'd never even think of it"

And I knew, right then
I could have you but I'd have to share
Honey, it never stops
So we slept, sunlit
I dreamt of nothingness in shades of red
Honey, it never stops
No, it never stops
No, it never stops

No, it never stops
No, it never stops
No, it never stops
No, it never stops
