"Like A Dog"
(written by Kristin Hersh)

Search the world for something for you
For something for you
Nothing's sweet enough
Scares me like you do
Built to walk out your front door
So you know how to leave
I give your lungs
So you know how to breathe
I give your lips and tongue
So you know how to fly
I give your life
So I can never die
Nothing's so much like heaven
Nothing's so much like rain
You have everything
I give your hands
So they know how to maim
Your heart
So it knows how to pray
You are right
You were right
A sweetheart scares me
