MAKING AND EFFORT

Ive got thoughts to spare and roots to bear and eyes
to stare
And yr sullen soul
Ive got lights that shine and would you mind
When I say im fine im lying thru my teeth

Would you sing to me in yr arms
Would you sing to me at my grave
Why don’t you speak to me anymore
Its pouring rain
Im muddying up the clean

Ive got you where you want me
Sink into the shadows
Lust thru hungry eyes wince but never shake
I got you on the sofa tryin not to make a sound
Wince as symptoms stutter when I say im fine im lying
thru my teeth

Would you sing to me thru sullen eyes
Would you sing to me even tho im wrong
I bought you flowers tonite so many cheap apologies
Would you fake a smile for me?
You got me where I want you
You break all of our wind chimes
I REMEMBER WHEN WE COULD TALK ALL NIGHT
I swim in yr loveliness you suck the marrow out of me
I press my face up to the glass when I say im fine
im lying thru my teeth
