Pairs

Pairs - Lotte Kestner

My veins are full of poison

From staying up so long

But tonight I won't sleep I promise

It is my watch my love

My pockets full of breadcrumbs

We watch the ducks in pairs

And this time we won't say

We forgot again to bring something for them

It hardly seems important

To keep my dreams from you

But what language was that

And all the names we had

That I'd not heard before

Afraid I'm going to lose you

'Cause that's the way it works

When's the last time you said

Everything's just so perfect the way it is

Everything's so perfect
