Stranger's Kiss (Duet with Angel Olsen)

Lyrics

Don't even bother climbing out of the well
 That ain't no way to get out of the hell that you're in
 If you wanna see the back of it, girl
 You better start digging down with your pail of tin
 I got shat on by an eagle, baby
 Now I'm king of the neighborhood
 And it feels like I could
 Just peel the gym pants off a single mother
 But this run of good luck don't got me feeling all that good
 And it hurts, and it hurts
 But I don't wanna talk about it
 'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
 Then I wake up to reality's bliss
 Now all I ever wanted and all I ever needed is right here
 In the stranger's kiss
 ♪
 Don't bother flying when you jump off the cliff
 Make sure it's head first if you don't want to deal with what-ifs
 I know you're wondering if you'll feel it again
 Just keep on digging down with your pail of tin
 No shame in sleeping with the seagulls, baby
 This town's a tourist trap, it's no place to be living
 They made a meme out of my legacy, darling
 My hands are caught in the net and they're pale and thin
 And it hurts, and it hurts
 Well, I don't wanna talk about it
 'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
 And I wake up to reality's bliss
 All I ever wanted and all I ever needed was right here
 In the stranger's kiss
 ♪
 Me and Roy, we got a pretty mean posse
 With the Down syndrome Jew from the real estate crew
 He keeps me busy with a shift now and then
 But it don't ever really stop me from thinking of you
 I know you're wondering why you wish you were dead
 And there's no solace in the fact that it's all in your head
 Try not to focus on the pain that you're in
 Just keep on digging down with your pail of tin
 If it hurts, well, it hurts
 But I don't wanna talk about it
 'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
 And I wake up to reality's bliss
 Now all I ever wanted and all I ever needed is right here
 In the stranger's kiss
 'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
 And I'll just stick 'em right there in the bin
 Thought I needed buckets of gold
 When all I needed was a dirty little pail of tin
