inside of dreams

i want you to know my heart
and hold my hand on the subway car
i want all of your words
and i want your touch
i know i cant have it i know i want too much
i'll let the rain flood the narrow streets
and i'll scatter these words on the summer breeze
i know i love you
and you like me
and some things must remain inside of dreams
inside of dreams
dancing in the park we stand so close but your mind is so far away
i know that you cant stay
i'll pretend it's love while we sit in the trees
then i'll fall on the truth and scrape my knees
i'll let the rain flood the narrow streets
and i'll scatter these words on the summer breeze
i know i love you
and you like me
and some things must remain inside of dreams

disco ball
00:54
|

love is a bee's nest inside of a disco ball
i was looking at him while he was looking at the floor
i refuse
i refuse this time to feel small
and when he touched me it felt like poetry
soft light and gold turning into green
i had the hope that he could be
the leaves reappearing on the trees

hunger
01:38
|
|||
different versions of you populate my dreams
and I wanted to tell you but you wouldn't know what I mean
so I stay quiet and swallow six pomegranate seeds
while sitting in your basement picking at my torn stockings
it's hard for me to explain what I need
cause I'm filled with a hunger that no one else can feed
and I wait begging for scraps on my knees
but still you weren't able to give me what I need

bitterness
01:09
|
|||
I am filled with bitterness
a rageful angel w a damning gaze
I used to think you were sweeter
and your love was pure, In the old days
Were you sick over me?
Did you worry about my health?
I think I know the answer cause
It's hard to be a friend when you're always looking in on yourself
you are filled with bitterness
wounded and wounding, a double blade
stuck in a sinkhole that you made

dancing through fog

dancing through the fog
as i withdraw
hope is the nail that's barely hangin on
you have lived and died about a thousand times
and i can see it in your eyes because so have i
so why dont we kiss
give ourselves something to miss in the next life
press me up against the counter
we know nothing really matters
let's pretend there's a next time to get it right
at the basement show
you move in the house light glow
we do what we can to make the night go slow
we move around with all the others
shooting looks at each other
there's so many beautiful ways to feel alive
so why dont we kiss
give ourselves something to miss in the next life
press me up against the counter
we know nothing really matters
let's pretend there's a next time to get it right
