woke up from my dream to hear you cry
youre still here, are you sad you're not mine?
I knew you knew
woke up from my dream to wonder how
you got me to shut my goddamn mouth
how did I do?
woke up from my dream to find youre gone
by myself in the dark, and a dog
where did you go?

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?

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.

out of my way
weight off of my head
do you want me?
or are you just messing
look at me, tell me what you want to
or wake me up in the afternoon
I dont think youre lost or wrong
time still breathes for you
mary lou, dont want you to go now
lie to me, what are you thinking about?
read between the lines more
am i your baby whore?
i dont think youre lost or wrong
you and me are just young

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.

Companion, from my rib
My Blushing Bride, Havvah
Speaks with birds, and serpents
In tedious conversation
Born from Taupe, Sienna
My Havvah gives me, knowledge of right and wrong
Now I can see all things.
By the sweat of your brow, you must live.

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 eye
I'd rather be you.
I'd rather believe nobody.
Im not looking at you
You only wear your dark specs so you can cry
Wouldn't do that to you
Or your man, you know I'm just a girl who'd rather be you
Who'd rather be you?
Who'd rather believe nobody?
So if you ask me to stay, I say so what
Want me to go away?
I'm not so surprised anymore, do you still get that way?
Dont wake me up as I fall asleep on you again, babe.
I'd rather have you
I'd rather have nobody, and nothing.

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

"open shoe, do you want me?"
I said "not a lot left i can give"
"what gives? thought I meant something to you!"
mary lou, i want to give to you
all ive got until im dry
when i lie, its only about you
I keep a close eye to you and not touch
while you tell me about the boys who want you
dont laugh a lot when you say "I'm crazy"
hide behind your fake voice when you kiss me
you are a faker to be only to me
yes you

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

Dark Cerulean, Taupe Sienna
Or I’ll go.
Would you try a bite of a long flavor ?
It’s only a sting, then you’d know my name.
Or I’ll go.
I’ll go.
Trust me, my Havvah
I would never lie.
Taupe Sienna, Apple of my eye
Or I’ll go.

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.
