Palms (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Orca - 2020)

Nobody's home
There never was
Applaud her alma mater
It is medicine

It's not your fault
No, it never would
I loved his only daughter
Like he never could

And now you're stuck
Replacing my own tongue

There's no need to talk (Oh no)
I'll read your palms
(They say) You lead me on
Lead me on (I'll lead the way)
There's no need to talk (Oh no)
I'll read your palms
(They say) You lead me on
Lead me on (I'll lead the way)

I ain't gon' lie, I need to meditate (Meditate)
Take the time and just get away (Get away)
Smoke some tree and go my own pace
But sitting here I picture your face, shit I can't erase
Keep it simple if you know that
And slowly drinking Shirley Temple, so you don't have no regrets
She asked me, "What do I mean to you?"
I said, "I'll read your palm and then I'll sing to you, then I'll sing to you"

Now you're stuck (Now you're stuck)
Replacing my own tongue (There's no need to talk)

There's no need to talk (Oh no)
I'll read your palms (Said, I'll read your palms, said I'll read your palms)
(They say) You lead me on (You lead me on)
Lead me on (I'll lead the way) (I said, lead me on, yes)
There's no need to talk (There's no need to talk)
I'll read your palms (Said I'll read your palms)
(They say) You lead me on (Lead me on, lead me on)
Lead me on (I'll lead the way)

I should have seen that you needed some help, love
You said, "Enough, I am done with the self-love
Now, I have no doubt
Although my faith's been besieged
See, you can release me"

I should have known that you've grown from pretending
There's nothing fault, nothing false with inventing lies
To hide your guise
Though it's not easy to see through

There's no need to talk (Oh no)
I'll read your palms
(They say) You lead me on
Lead me on (I'll lead the way)
There's no need to talk (Oh no)
I'll read your palms
(They say) You lead me on
Lead me on (I'll lead the way)
