plasma kids (trailer, alley, strip mall) - sonny falls lyrics

[verse 1]
trailer in gary, steve was so scary
hole in his throat, whiskey in his cup
gravel front yard stared at the stars
and a pregnant swollen alley cat, a boarded up two flat
black and white tv, grandma couldn’t see me
looking at the girls in old magazines
she lived in a haze, got over the shakes
the accident on hohman scrambled her brains
my mom in the backseat came out unscathed
grandma still slurred her words
smoking and scowling, sitting on the couch
drool pooling at the side of her mouth
never knew what the f*ck she was talking about

[chorus]
attempt to befriend the kid that’s within you
he’s still in there wondering what’s to come
holding up the weight of all that could be
is better than the closure of knowing that it’s done, it’s done

[verse 2]
we smoked weed out of foil
while your dad, sick, wheezed inside
you told me that he used to work for the fbi
and in the garage that we stood beside
there were boxes of pictures from various crimes
he didn’t want us to see ’em, but you found the key
snuck inside to get it while he was asleep
oh, the pictures were awful, i can’t unsee ’em
[chorus]
attempt to befriend the kid that’s within you
he’s still in there wondering what’s to come
holding up the weight of all that could be
is better than the closure of knowing that it’s done, it’s done

[verse 3]
left your party to disappear
into a car with an open beer
with a guy who said he had the coolest place
he had “mom” tattooed on the side of his face
but his loft was lame and the coke was bad
and he got too drunk, reminded you of your dad
and the sun rose so you crept outside
to find a friend in whom to confide
the mistake you made and the shape you’re in
shaking, looking like a skeleton
now we’re in a strip mall selling plasma
for a pack of smokes and a fifth of vodka
you panicked in the passenger seat of my honda
said, “i’m the human form of a broken condom”
