Making More Beneath - Pony Up

You speak to me in universals

And in the grand scheme of things

And that’s where you lost me

So just leave me here

Drowning in the details

Of how lonely I can be

Carry me back home

You dried up loser

Marry me for fun

And lock me up

You will see we’ll all be happy

And now I sit crunched on the bed

Where I always say goodbye

You don’t rise to see me off

And who knew I could tell the future

But I did

I left and you were lost

Carry me back home

You dried up loser

Marry me for fun

And knock me up

You will see we’ll all be happy

This is how it should be

Just you and me

Take me for nothing and wonder what I’m worth

And downstairs the basement is filling up with earth

And we’ll hear the babies sharpening their teeth

While their daddy and me lie making more beneath

And it’s not like you to wonder

How it is I give you cover

Won’t you stare off in the distance

And I squirm my way back under

Things that mean this is forever

That I shouldn’t just surrender

To the sense it makes or doesn’t

And the people who knew better

But they never taught me this

Was it all I should hope for?

Someone who has wrong equations

And adds lines of doubt to wonder
