Damien Jurado Dimes song lyrics

I've got dimes by the dozen

I'm placing a call to your husband

Does he know about me at all?

I hang up when he answers

It's too much for me to handle

What happens now, when it all goes down?

Gas station lights for a candle

Your heart's put together then dismantled

Secrets are best when left unsaid

The floodgates are open

And you'll see me

Running back

And no one is perfect

You must admit it now

I'm in my best when you're pretending

And no paper plane is safe for landing

This is how the best all die

Holding my breath until you need me

Foraging my way into the simple

Somehow my voice was caught in the trees

The floodgates are open

And you'll see me

Running back

And no one is perfect

You must admit it now

The way you built this song and what they told us

Switching the lines just to confuse us

What happens now

Now all goes down
