God Damned The Ampersand!

from God, Save The Ampersand! by The New & Very Welcome

/

lyrics

I wake up and don't know where I am for the first time in a long time, but I find your head resting right next to mine.
Oh, you make my life better.
I've not died, but I've tried.
Oh, you make my life so much better.
(God damned the ampersand!)
And last night I saw love break and beat and make a man bite the dirt, kiss the cold ground, and gasp for air.
I've been there.
(God damned the ampersand!)
And I find that love can turn the best of humans into monsters.
We're all just homewreckers in our own ways, aren't we?
But for what it's worth I still believe that love is worth it.
Oh, the melodrama, well it might just be my favorite attribute of it.
When it's all said and done and you wake up bite hard on your tongue and taste the warm blood and remember to remember to scream outloud:
"We're above ground!"
