these things take time
like learning the clarinet
i think you and me
well i guess we could be
my skins gonna wonder what i'm doing now
something old and something new
something i said or that i did
it should remind me of you
share your breath with me
graze mine and doing fine
i could die happy
lets lay here quiet
so close they cant hear
and we'll still watch movies
but we wont share the couch
and you'll still kiss me
but pulled away so easily
because we all know art is hard
let it out
then go to take it in
its getting too routine
so we would sulk and drink and hope to die
we pulled some strings
spun things around
and began to shout
liar liar
the story goes on
theres no beginning to the story
you can squint at it through snowy static
keep on stretching the antenna
in hopes it will come clear
you know it kills me to see such a pretty girl so tired
suck on my fingertips until you kill all my prints
so you're boyfriend has no clue
how much i've been touching you
so i sang you a song
poor choices of chords and the words were forced
you come apart at the seems
as she lays up awake
its her feelings that ache
you took it back
everything you said
and cough it up to cut it right in half
your new tattoo looks cool
but its not really you
on our way we had our fun
then it turned
sometimes we lose the games we play
as i recall they hadn't mentioned this at all
and love with you for tonight and thats all
but i just dont know what it was
and if theres nothing left to say
i'll string you along until i get my way
and if you wanna dance
then i'll want to lead
and you know its all in your mind
take your time with this one
we both deserve a good time
those sad blue eyes
i did forget what the tarot maid did say
i'll burn today
the land will shake
so run away
i will get back to
the back up plan to find you
the wilted flower that i gave
all the lyrics
starlight and brightness
start acceleration take it back to square one
its like learning the clarinet
and imagine that
you haven't sqweaked yet.
maybe we'll see this through if i get it together
