Meet Me Tonight At The Landfill
This track appears as a duet with Lawrence Peters on my solo album The Salt Of Your Skin (2002).
You're gunning for me and I'm laying low
So how did we run out of anyplace new to go
This thing is so dead we've got nothing left to kill
Meet me tonight at the landfill

We said all our lines, we walked through our parts
We took out old vows and pasted them up with hearts
But the trick with the past is leaving it standing still
Meet me tonight at the landfill

Two empty hulls dressed up to go away
So how did we wind up with not a damn thing worth saving

And when I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord don't bother, got nothing I want to keep
See it for what it is and then tell me will
Will you meet me tonight at the landfill

Come meet me tonight at the landfill
