just ignore our splitting bed i’ll come and find you turning into my dream again when the galaxy is in pain it’s me, picking up the glass and i put my hand back in your hand pick it up, pick it up we’re not natural i’m heading into your wave i’m the hero in your heart and when you take my name i eat your name and the sun i told myself we should kiss unbuttoned in the shower, volcanic, or we’re just having fun when the lava cracks, it’s me picking up, picking up the glass and i put my hand back in your hand kiss again, kiss again i’m seasick i’m heading into your wave i’m the hero in your heart and when you take her name i eat your name and the sun
you know i tried to hide the password in my mouth spilling out the sides under spilling sun but no one’s picking up “are you running from are you running from yourself?” i thought i was being nice seashell in a wave a star with no mother in sight — im her daughter and i left her there i left myself there it’s funny that you say im pretty when i cry i feel ready, go online kill every everything naked every time “are you running from are you running from yourself?” the grapevine grows to hell the memory unwinds then i was a balanced knife you were buried with me and i left you there i left myself there my paper cut tragedy still bleeding down my leg that’s not what i wanted im so sick of wanting that’s not what i was saying i’m so sick of talking
you didn’t know you dragged it out you changed your mind giving back what you’ve won getting caught again on the ice i like it more in between your teeth and the bottom lip you stick out at me you slept through death you’re out of it giving back what you’ve won anticipating tears in your tights i like it more when you’re so sweet raspberry in between my knees mirror image of a bumble bee mumble something true to me
it's not mine it slipped under the door and found a new home inside i held it close without gloves on how breath breaks the glass to save me from hating you i didn’t want to go out like this sleeping through movies on a saturday so i could dream where girls cant die they just hurt it’s getting up and it’s itching my eyes i’ve learned to love my fragile beast, its pride i spit on my hands i put all of myself into the rose cage i didn’t want to go out like this sleeping through movies on a saturday so i could dream where girls cant die they just hurt i cant remember any of your reasons then before the earth was rotten and torched, overgrown i let go of my watering can and you reached in to pull out your prize
i’m waiting all alone for the train that doesn’t come— it gets too shy heaven light binds you to my bad thoughts when i see you swimming out, i fall into a star, and hide this miracle i might glow your way, but i’m lost behind you raining down from a cloud at home, you drink boiling black tea around me with your faith relaxed, i snap the curtains closed this is what you chose to be, stuck inside my jeans heaven light binds you to my bad thoughts heaven light binds you to the earthworm when i see you swimming out, i fall into a star, and hide this miracle i might glow your way, but i’m lost behind you raining down from a cloud

if you stopped me now i’d cry through the roof wet dog running over and tortured i know it isn’t much, but i’m missing you im hiding in my palm near the heart line with all these fucking people, still looking at me i know i see you doing it too i touched it the wet pearl the baby bird or a sun speeding swallowing the cold world i know it isn’t much, but i’m missing you im hiding in my palm near the heart line with all these fucking people, still looking at me i know i see you doing it too
you know girls, we like to fight, red wine as lipstick, spun moonlight she doesn’t see what im wearing on my bike spiderwebbed and dreamlike that must have hurt so much i still wish you, ah that must have hurt so much i still wish you, ah opened your mouth for it and i’m so sad wearing your necklace in a candy jar your boyfriend doesn’t know where we are ten years ago we’d bite him back but now im too jealous for that that must have hurt so much i still wish you, ah that must have hurt so much i still wish you, ah opened your mouth for it and i’m so sad
i dream of you turning off the light switch over our weekend bed in death or shadow and i break in snowstorms so you’d hold me warm we kissed across the sea then you said to me but i could stay up for you like you used to do, like you hoped i would, like you used to do but i could stay up for you like you used to do you’d hoped i thought of it and you think about me too im swallowing all your missed calls no, i dont feel that bad i missed getting you mad i wear your bones so you know i love you yeah i never say it that’s what change is but i could stay up for you like you used to do, like you hoped i would, like you used to do but i could stay up for you like you used to do you’d hoped i thought of it and you think about me too
when the stars fall, i’m moving back home bending over and letting my hair down he’s not seeing the scrape on my shoulder he cant know my insides are running out will you wait for me? would you wait for it to pour out of me? will you wait for me? would you let me take hold of your power? i imagine myself getting older in a black dress, in polluted ground closing in on wildflower seeds letting my life go from me but in the bathtub im only a baby floating white tears that wont mix ill scrape it off and start it all over turning my heart into a christmas tree will you wait for me? would you wait for it to pour out of me? will you wait for me? would you let me take hold of your power? it’s so dark now i cant show you what i need im still bleeding if you’re taking, take everything
i wouldnt think of you as my boyfriend though i like being in love popping bubbles on your tongue on the way back i scraped my knee on the way home i scraped my knee yeah lets meet at the park dry water fountains breathing in all of your dirt the smoke from your weed pen im not acting tough anymore i want to be real, just tell me you’re sure i can’t wait here anymore im waving in wind to blow down your door it’s a deflating face the front of your paycheck then i trip on your laces collecting brand new pain on the way back i scraped my knee on the way home i scraped my knee i wanted to be a young poet, still undressed but the birds don’t call for me im too impossible im not acting tough anymore i want to be real, just tell me you’re sure i can’t wait here anymore i can’t stop the wind from blowing through your door i said im not that girl anymore a wet white paintbrush, a prisoner of war i don’t let things go anymore im standing up straight and being a whore
