Absenter Lyrics

Jawbox Absenter

Entropy's in, embroidered on skin
corrupt, latch-hook thin for show
You're in at dusk
They clean you up until you glow

Absenter, absenter

Secede, recede, I'll mark your retreat
Layers at a time, get what you need
You're marks on tiles, piss in the flowerbed
Scabs on knees

Absenter, absenter

Save a little bit, save it
Send it back to me

Absenter, absenter, absenter
Absenter, absenter, absenter
