The Benefit Of The Doubt - Lyrics - Vigil

She's not me and I'm not she We'll never be one we just keep the same company The talkers will prattle about us in knowing tones Hence my love-hate relationship with my phone We're all alone High on the bench All alone Sitting in judgment All alone Handing sentences down without the benefit of the doubt We shed lovers like dead skin I slither to walk and wax reptilian Huh! I'm out on a limb above you Look up! I'll drop down as I hiss that I love you All along Smiling to myself All along As Titanic sinks itself All along Dancing on the docks we shout the benefit of the doubt Thomas, Thomas I swear I promise I've got your doctrine down don't frown Thomas, Thomas I swear I promise I'll never let you down I'll never let you down I wink at you through prayers that recite themselves twice a night before the *** crows Let me slip my hand into your side And push my finger in to a hole in your hide Because it's gonna be quite a long ride without the benefit of the doubt the benefit of the doubt the benefit of the doubt the benefit of the doubt the benefit of the doubt
