Tuck Me In

Alkaline Trio

3

Tuck me into where it's freezing,

Tuck me into bed with snakes

Tuck me in with the tarantulas,

I wanna let 'em in my mouth

and down my throat to lay their eggs

Tuck me into where there's bleeding,

Where it spills out of the walls onto the floor

Tuck me into where your best friend's apologies

amount to shit, they always did, for ever more

I pour out onto the floor

like liquid white from fallen glass

Nothing to cry over

My skin went sour long ago

It knew it had nowhere else to go

Tuck me into where I'm falling,

Where I can feel the heat rise underneath my wings

and all the fallen angels in hell

will tuck me away from you,

take me away from everything

Tuck me into where there's dying,

Tuck me in with flames and tuck me in with flies,

Maybe then you will appreciate your only friend

with maggots in her eyes or as ashes in the sky

I pour out onto the floor

like liquid white from fallen glass,

Nothing to cry over

My skin went sour long ago

It knew it had no place left to go

I pour out onto the floor

like liquid white from fallen glass,

Nothing to cry over

My skin went sour long ago

It knew it had no place left to go
