lyrics
Let me guess your weakness
Or some other time
Though I’m known to stay inside
With you I want to try
Ineffably, out of breath,
With a lake on top my chest
everybody’s left,
please don’t be next
Oh spit it out, I’m still here,
Every freckle, every tear
Nearly 30 years
What do you have in mind?
The crescent in the water
Can’t seem to catch a fish
And any bread I offer
Does not reach your lips
Adrenaline, mix it in
A Total lack of common sense
Hidden innocence, constantly tense
Ruddy edges un-caressed
Any case, I’ll do my best
What’s left unaddressed
What do you have in mind?
Part of me still wonders what it’s like
Mostly in the middle of the night
Is there such an outcome to my life?
Open to be surprised
What do you have in mind?
Or some other time
Though I’m known to stay inside
With you I want to try
Ineffably, out of breath,
With a lake on top my chest
everybody’s left,
please don’t be next
Oh spit it out, I’m still here,
Every freckle, every tear
Nearly 30 years
What do you have in mind?
The crescent in the water
Can’t seem to catch a fish
And any bread I offer
Does not reach your lips
Adrenaline, mix it in
A Total lack of common sense
Hidden innocence, constantly tense
Ruddy edges un-caressed
Any case, I’ll do my best
What’s left unaddressed
What do you have in mind?
Part of me still wonders what it’s like
Mostly in the middle of the night
Is there such an outcome to my life?
Open to be surprised
What do you have in mind?
