When you go away it gets harder to breathe
I want you to stay but you're looking to leave
and I wouldn't mind making believe

Is it too late
I'll do it anyway
I told you

You've got two bad eyes, you got em from your parents
And one bad leg, you got it from the war
Three mistakes in bottles on a shelf yes
You can't wait to go and make some more

If you sneak out now, they'll never know you're missing
Before they're wise, you could be gone and back
While they stand guffawing in the kitchen

well you're traipsin' up and down my backyard
get too cold, i'd die
diggin' through my trashcans
with that white rope tied around your neck
you mistake me for some southern goddess
some delta girl done wrong
but i'm fixin' the knot through whatever i have to
to stay silent, get gone

Everything I touch turns to shit
Everyone I try to love won t hear of it
Now my hands are overfull of things I d like to give
Does anybody want it?
Does anybody want it?
Does anybody want me?

I ve been mapping it out

Scrape you off the pavement
Just like I said I would
But I can't stand to watch the way
You break yourself against the ground
The things you are
The way you do
Shouldn't have a thing to do
With anyone but you

Love grows in me like a tumor,
parasites bent on devouring its host.
I'm developing my sense of humor,
till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth,
till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet.

chorus

Here comes the monster so ready yourself
A cupful of ashes, a knife in your belt
Here comes an answer that I harpooned
Dragged it to deck now, so we should know soon

No not another lie from me or you

Oh no it's coming round just like you said

Here is a heart
Here is a heart
I made it for you so take it
Battered and braised
Grilled and sautéed
Just how you like it
You know I live to fill you up
Blood of my blood

Time has told me there's not enough of it
for me to make a comprehensive list
of the things you do that make me lose my grip

Whether you are wearing shirts and pants
or performing your naked sexy dance
we both know that I don't stand a chance

I came back from the well without a trace of water
But I won't ever tell cos I'm my father's daughter

Give a little take a little that's how it go
Waiting to remember that you know what you know

You follow the leader and I'm an in-betweener so it goes
I need a believer but you gotta see it so you won't

I kick you like a dog that never gets fed,
kick you like a dog that never gets fed.
I trust you with my words like you're my friend.

I've got so much
stowed away down there.
I've got so much
stowed away down there.

I can't make real life
as good as television.
One she wants and one she will,
and I can't pick a position.

I set the VCR to recome, rewind and fast-forward.
I cut out the bad parts,
I don't want to watch anything that hurts

We could be pirates or go somewhere private
I don’t wanna make a scene I just wanna leave
And head back to your place cause I got a roommate
And he don’t wanna hear or see what you’re doing to me

I’ll keep coming back
You don’t make me better but you don’t make me worse
I’ll keep coming back

Swallowed it all and feeling fine
Give it a little bit more time
Closing in on silent mind
Wait for the perfect sign

Talking end of the couch again
Break apart at the slightest thing
How can it matter where I've been

Hark the herald angels sing but not for us my dear
I can't recall a single thing worthcelebrating this year

Watch the clock and pace the floor
Shut my eyes and slam the door
Tear down the lights
We don't need them anymore

Make way for the new time
Can’t wait on the side lines
Making promises you don’t understand
To people who aren’t listening
No one is gonna tear my hand
Away

I can’t look back and I can’t look away

Everyday
The same mistake
The pieces don't fit
How I guess
Worn so thin and caving in
Frozen between a no and yes

I'm sliding for some time

Oh god it took a while to come right back to me
I'd give up anything if you'd just let me be
No use in shaking me just leave me in my bed
Cause mornings are the worst bit
Mornings drag me on ahead

I know I should have seen that hand behind your back
But I was busy launching my own full-scale heart attack
