Can you withstand the thorns of her walls
You think you're so gentle
Can you handle his ego as a delicacy
Are you misled or misleading
Somebody else will
Clean up the mess
I've made of you
Mop those tears
Do my job
Holding me by the wrist
But I'm floating baby
Back home
You can't hold on long enough
Didn't know how far from home I was
He was the flame
And the fire
Kept me warm and
Burned me alive
Led me to paradise and destruction
Never see me again
Won't allow it
When we cross paths
You'll wonder who's that
Without any clue who I've become
With others
I could run, jump
Some others I could certainly skip
With you I could be perfectly still
There was nowhere else we wanted me to be
I live in a sea
Of cannots
You told me I could have
Everything I have now
And everything I lost with you
I run hot
And you were a cold compress
On the back of my neck
You made the sweat okay
You made them stop laughing
Is love anything more
Than two people feeling
Like they don't deserve each other
Then realizing they do
Then realizing that's enough
I've taken off the lens
Seen you through
My own eyes
You are more than photogenic
Those touch ups demean you
It turns out
Your side of the bed
Is lonelier than mine
Cooler but colder
Where to sleep now
She lit every fire
Burned every bridge
Fanned every flame she could
And he watched her hurl her fire sticks
Into the pond before his feet
Why did you
Walk right past me
I was still showing you more
The more I revealed the less
I'm just tired of being depreciated
Lips
Then forehead and nose
After tasting you I wanted you
To remember me and my scent
Knowing you might have to
I want someone
To think fondly of
At hours like this
Instead of shame and rebuke
I could go for some honour
No more babe
For the first time
You're all gone
I am alone with no ropes
Climbing properly with my legs
Weddings
I am happy for them
Really I am
It's a beautiful night
On both sides of the moon
