Jawbox - Static

i sunk my eyes in static
you taught me how to see it
now theres no sign of you at hand
so i stop looking at it
my head is splitting trying
to read the name that you abandoned

congratulations sister
you put yourself right over
though you dont think i understand
this sudden awkward rupture
this stuck-unhealing fissure
no love could possibly withstand
and id never say
it doesnt mean that much to me
glad anyway
to see you struggle free

pinned down but unexamined
though you kept right on looking
at static there behind my eyes
keep pushing one-way vision
i guess at least its something
since everythings so compromised
