stranger in your bed
I lie still, straight, silent
back down, face up
waiting for you
to change your clothes down the stairs
all while thinking
I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing here
the sheets are like a straight jacket
and I can't move a thing
for fear that I'll wake you up
it's late and you wouldn't want to talk
you don't want me here
I don't want to be here
I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing here

Roof

not a crushing sadness
just peacefully drowning
and I softly ascend
into the softest blue
where would I be without you?
right here
and with you I'd like
to be on your roof
if only for tonight
I'd like to know
what it may have felt like
right here
and sometimes it just takes one
beautiful face to put your heart in its place

open my hands
I have a gift
glass to chew
it's what I brought for you
sorry I did not
get you what you wanted
did you really expect me to?
I've stolen from you before
do you think at all?
we both know that I felt you shaking
new years eve in the small hallway
where I told you it would be ok
we both know that you felt me fading
staring at the ceiling
and your arm was like a seatbelt across my chest
as if I were about to float away
we both know that I felt you shaking
my hand on your leg
my lies in your head
"i won't hurt you"
is your hood too tight, little miss red?
No one told told you
never sleep in a wolf's bed?
if you aren't careful
I'll blow your house down
I'll eat your family

Is That Your Flower?

I saw you
I think you saw me
I think I saw you thinking I saw you
I don't want to see you
swirl
around the room we dance
but never touching hands
let us not spark
fires best not to start
I'm sure my fingers
would fit nicely between
strands of your hair
black like my room
where I don't have to see you
swirl
around the room we dance
but never touching hands
let us not spark
fires best not to start
