A Girl, a Boy, and a Graveyard

Lucy takes the long way home
meets me in a field of stone
she says "i don't know how i'm s'pose to feel
my body's cold my guts are twisted steel."

and i feel like i'm some kind of frankenstein
waiting for a shock to bring me back to life
but i don't want to spend my time
waiting for lightning to strike.

so underneath the concrete sky
lucy puts her hand in mine
she says "life's a game we're meant to lose.
but stick by me and i will stick by you."

cause i'm like a princess in a castle high
waiting for a kiss to bring me back to life
but i don't want to spend my time
waiting for just another guy.
