im not looking at you (yes i am)
you only wear your dark specs so that nothing
can ever come through
i get so scared when you look into my eyes
id rather be you
id rather believe nobody
im not looking at you
"you only wear your dark specs so you can cry!"
wouldnt do that to you
or your man, you know im just a girl whod rather be you
whod rather be you?
whod rather believe nobody and nothing
so if you ask me to stay i say so what
want me to go away?
im not so surprised anymore
do you still get that way?
dont wake me up if i fall asleep on you again, babe
id rather have you
id rather have nobody, and nothing

If you were not you, and I was not me
I would not wait
Yes, you are my God
My only friend, who I love breezily this way
So please, put it in me
Say you’ll show what’s underneath
I know if you keep me spinning
I’ll spill all over your front rug
You always say it’s stupid
To speak so loose and act so rough
But I love you
It ain’t too far
I love you!
Disregard, little birdie who
Knows your heart better than I do
I know if you keep spinning
I’ll spill all over your front rug
You always say it’s stupid
To speak so loose and act so rough
Put it in me.

Wanting you instead
I was here before
Whirling out your window
I hated you before
It dont change nothing…
I know I was here before
Don’t make me decide
I don’t want to be stuck on the wall
If you want me to stay
Barking all the way
Say you hear my call
You know, now what you were missing
I knew just who you were kissing
Does that change something, my love?
You always meant more
To me.
Was I given TWO CARDS? I was!
You picked yourself apart
Every day
Take a break!!!!!!
If you were my “friend”, too
Don’t say I love you
Whoever I was before
I know right now, only right now
Against my will, I’m yours.

remain looking
hard into your eyes
on my wall
you trace me
so why then?
do you need an excuse
to keep me dead?
i cant be your dog anymore
melt your cold heart
over mine, this time
throw me out
or keep me, but
i wont always stay
no, i can never play
if i cant be your dog anymore

are you okay?
im not the way i was
im someone different
choose to feel bad later
baby, if im cold
baby, if im cold
dont ask me why
i dont want to cry
run my hair through your comb
already tired of my home
what else, can remain?
put it all away
why do you move so fast?
dont care whats underneath
are you the same way
you expect me to be?
someone different
choose to feel "all better"
baby, if you go
baby, if you go
im not the one to turn to salt, later

I’m still remembering your front door
I don’t want you to open up on me
You cut me off to ask me
Why aren’t I looking your way?
I can’t, I’m on my back
Don’t ask me if you know, I’m shaking.
Don’t ask me if you know, I’m breaking
I can’t look your way you know, I’m shrinking
Don’t ask me if you know, I can’t fake it.
Are you remembering my bedroom?
Splinter on your knuckle
I can’t touch you
You cut me up like all your dirty magazine queens
Not mine to take or borrow

its not a lie
to look forward to
but for me, its winning
its not a lot to hold on to
but what i got, im keeping
up the back of your mommys car
im so sick of not saying
what i think, or want to happen right now
dont you want to keep lying to yourself?
youre not a lot to hold on to
when i reach, you start slipping
under, and between my fingers
you go, ill keep wishing
up the back of your mommys car

I will wait for you to turn to dust
I will watch your body burn
In that minute, steal my last hard look
Only hope I dont like it too much
I will watch my baby turn to dust
You arent my rock
You are my skyscraper
Just let me fall
Off of you forever
If not right now, fake trust
Hard sigh in a manly touch
I cant wait to be a man
With you, in my snow globe hair!
I want you there!
I want you IN mine!
Cause you arent my rock
You are my skyscraper
I have a hunch
Because I was up there too
Yes, I did ignore
But you confuse me more.

cowgirl, when i see you
I just want to run
I dont want to keep hiding from your eye
do you have the stamina through smoke?
acting like I dont know you when I do
I guess you could say you "didnt know"
youre watching me close
what do you know?
cowgirl I know youre watching me
closer than yourself
my chance to bite the thread where you pull me
how long should i hold this grudge?
I dont want to keep runnning
I guess you could say you "didnt know"
youre watching me close
what do YOU know?
ah yes, you could say you "didnt know"
Im watching you close, what do you know?

i dont want to say hello
you are not mine to borrow
so if you want to talk to me
youll just have to talk alone
baby, you lost your way
dont be thankless
i dont want to feel below
you are my skyscraper
if i commit, will i topple?
cause i dont want to fall alone
baby, you lost your way
dont be thankless
baby, im not going nowhere
