Slowly Slowly - Suicidal Evangelist Lyrics

I can read the paper in a thousand different ways
And I can tell you how I'm feeling, but only when I'm on stage
And I can tell it's understood, cause I can hear it in your smile
Curving round your words & downwards in a spiral
Those big container ships, you never see em move
But you turn away to talk and they're right in front of you
I cherry picked the fights I was willing to ignite
A suicidal evangelist took me for a ride

It's not what I wanted, but I think this will do
I flew like an anvil before I found you
I was sick of the comforts the stains on my hands
But when I crawl up beside you I start to make plans
And I think of myself now as what you tell me you see
I don't cry in the morning & I smile when I sleep
The cold snap of those lights as I walk through the dark
I forget all those old lines 'cause I got a new part

Now when I see that old stranger he goes to tip his hat
Looks around to check the time and disappears just like that
I get to cherry pick the nights I extend the invites
Dear suicidal evangelist, you're full of shit & I won't die

It's not what I wanted, but I think this will do
I flew like an anvil before I found you
I was sick of the comforts the stains on my hands
But when I crawl up beside you I start to make plans
And I think of myself now as what you tell me you see
I don't cry in the morning cause I like what I see
The cold snap of those lights as I walk through the dark
I forget all those old lines caus I got a new part
Suicidal evangelist, there's no more room in my heart
