lyrics

Every day I wake up to the ceiling
Hungry and hot, embarrassed of feeling
The things you make me feel
Maybe I’ll cook and we’ll share a meal

I watched as you grazed your knee
Salty and sore it seemed to me
That your body was tired and easy to tear
I want you to open, I want you to share

Tell me my eyes are pretty
Painted blue, just like you
Give me a flower to press in a book
I’ll post it to you in a year or two

I’m lonely when I’m awake
Follow your footsteps and end up in the lake
Close my eyes and turn to dark
I’ll think we’re together even when we’re apart

Promise to smile if I’m kissed tonight
Use my manors and do everything right
I want to be somewhere other than here
I want to do something I secretly fear

Tell me my eyes are pretty
Painted blue, just like you
Give me a flower to press in a book
I’ll post it to you in a year or two

I’m lonely when I’m awake
Follow your footsteps and end up in the lake
Close my eyes and turn to dark
I’ll think we’re together even when we’re apart
