Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret.
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name
As she sheds her skin on stage
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A.
The strip joint veteran sits two away
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri
[And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety]
{{Just stay where I can see you
Douse the lights!
We sure are in for a show tonight}}
I'd chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality.
Is it still me that makes you sweat?
Am I who you think about in bed?
When the lights are dim and your hands are shaking as you're sliding off your dress?
Then think of what you did
And how I hope to God he was worth it.
When the lights are dim and your heart is racing as your fingers touch his skin.
I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck
Than any boy you'll ever meet, sweetie you had me
Girl I was it, look past the sweat, a better love deserving of
Exchanging body heat in the passenger seat?
No, no, no, you know it will always just be me
Come save me from walking off a windowsell
or I'll sleep in the rain.
Don't you remember when I was a bird
and you were a map?
Picking up things we shouldn't read,
Looks like the end of history as we know,
It's just the end of the world.
Back to the street where we began,
Feeling as good as lovers can, you know,
Into a place, where thoughts can bloom,
Into a room where it's nine in the afternoon ,
{[The ink is running towards the page
Chasing off the days
Look back at both feet and that winding knee
I missed your skin when you were east
You clicked your heels and wished for me
Through playful lips made of yarn
That fragile Capricorn
unraveled words like moths upon old scarves
I know the worlds a broken bone
But melt your headaches, call it home]}
She said she'd won the world at a carnival
[...]
But who could love me?
I am out of my mind
Throwing a line out to sea
To see if I can catch a dream
Things are shaping up to be pretty odd
Little deaths in musical beds
So it seems I'm someone I've never met
Things have changed for me, and that's okay
I feel the same, I'm on my way, and I say
Things have changed for me, and that's okay…
((When the sun found the moon
She was drinking tea in a garden
Under the green umbrella trees
In the middle of summer
So he said, "Would it be all right
If we just sat and talked for a little while
If in exchange for your time
I give you this smile?"
So she said, "That's okay
As long as you can make a promise
Not to break my little heart
Or leave me all alone in the summer."))
Well he was just hanging around
Then he fell in love
And he didn't know how
But he couldn't get out
Allow me to exaggerate a memory or two
Where summer's lasted longer than
Longer than we do
Where nothing really mattered
Except for me to be with you
But in time we all forgot
And we all grew
[...]
You've never been so divine
In accepting your defeat
And I've never been more scared to be alone
If love is not enough to put my enemies to sleep
Then I'm putting out the lantern
Find your own way back home
Innocence.
Sunk the glow and drowned in covers,
send for all your absent lovers things.
Go on,
grab your hat and fetch a camera.
Go on, film the world before it happens.
Hey moon, please forget to fall down
Hey moon, don't you go down
