The Jessica Numbers - The New Pornographers
Let me through
paper in fist
Jessica numbers
tell me if
we're clear
write me a star
just tape a letter to the door
this thing is your mission
the lone-wishin condition
brave
under the war
Jessica numbers
to the wall
slip through
ever the thief
is posed to hero
but we'll see
this thing is your mission
the lone-wishin condition
push me through
counting the miles
measuring all my shadows by
old star
shifting to red
just tape the numbers to the bed
head-tripping on the sadness
as it passes
as word across
the window frost
and now
starting to fear
the kicking year
at last, yes
keeping an eye on
let me through
paper in fist
Jessica numbers
give me this
let's fall
look where we land
just like the answer on my hand
this thing is your mission
the lone-wishin condition
this thing is your mission
the lone-wishin condition
Jessica numbers
are due
