Lyrics for Tuna in the Brine

I fondle keys to my heart When everyone's heart Seems so calm And you found the lock to my dorm And opened the doors to my trust fund My vestry The light in my darkest hour is fear Denies me of anything good So don't lose your heart You'll need it And to lose your heart You'll have to Take another pill And tell another lie And lie amongst your lies Like tuna in the brine Take everything that you're not And don't be so scared to tamper With tampered with evidence 'Cause you'll come along for the sun If you come at all The light in your darkest hour is fear Denies me of anything good So don't lose your heart You'll need it And to lose your heart, you'll have to Lie amongst your lies Like tuna in the brine And to lose your heart And don't lose your Don't lose your heart To lose your heart, you'll have to Take Take Take Take Painting a lie, seeing the colours But you seem closer to everything Painting a lie, seeing the colours But you seem closer to everything Painting a lie, seeing the colours But you seem closer to everything Closer now than we ever have been We're closer now than we ever should We'll be closer now than we'll ever been before Closer to everything Busking for change and changing everything Feeble fables aren't changing many things It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brine For my pregnant paws aren't changing anything To all of the animals who Keep sipping the sweat from my back You're making me ill and I can't get enough So take another pill And tell another lie And lie amongst your lies Like tuna in the brine
