[00:00.00]Know Your Onion - The Shins
[00:11.00]Shut out pimpled and angry
[00:14.19]I quietly tied all my guts into knots
[00:18.19]Gave up on trying to make them
[00:21.25]I figured it'd take them too long to look up and besides
[00:26.12]It was undeniably clear to me i don't know why
[00:31.01]When every other part of life seemed locked behind shutters
[00:36.56]I knew what worthless dregs we've always been
[00:40.75]Lucked out and found my favorite records
[00:43.94]Lying in wait at the birmingham mall
[00:47.81]The songs that i heard
[00:50.00]The occasional book
[00:51.19]Were the only fun i ever took
[00:55.62]And i got on with making myself
[01:13.12]The trick is just making yourself
[01:16.62]But when they're parking their cars on your chest
[01:20.50]You've still got a view of the summer sky
[01:24.00]To make it hurt twice when your restless body
[01:27.94]Caves to its whims
[01:31.44]And suddenly struggles to take flight
[01:43.17]Three thousand miles north east
[01:45.04]I left all my friends at the morning bus stop shaking their heads
[01:49.86]"what kind of life you dream of you're allergic to love"
[01:53.23]Yes i know but i must say in my own defense
[01:57.67]It's been undeniably dear to me i don't know why
[02:02.61]When every other part of life seemed locked behind shutters
[02:08.10]I knew the worthless dregs we are
[02:11.54]The selfless loving saints we are
[02:14.79]The melting sliding dice we've always been
