The Lonely Slowly Loves

(álbum: I O U 2 - 2018)

(Slowly loves, slowly loves, slowly loves, slow-)
All the lonely slowly loves

I can hear the coke in your jaw
I can tell that you have broken a law of attraction
I know what book you read
Based on the first words you said to me
I know the hybrid from your eyelids
I hear the violence in your silence
All the lonely slowly loves

I was looking for some substance
You offered me a trip
I said "where you tryn'a go?"
You said "boy I never know, but I'm always down to dip"
Suddenly I'm a kid again
Clinging to some black obsidian
Guarding my meridians
Fall into oblivion, oh
All the lonely slowly loves

Oh water, but you kept me alive
Oh daughter, won't you let me arrive
Oh pain, but you kept me astride
Oh mind, let me stay here
Carbon doesn't play fair
I only trust the shungite
And I'll swallow all my pride to feed your ego
All the lonely slowly loves

But I would never let you Sconcé
I would never bring you round Jade
Never let it go beyond me
All my friends they call me Pompeii
Ashes and lashes all in my laundry
Broken hearts over broken minds
Still putting overtime, 'cause mama said
All the lonely slowly loves

Slowly loves
Slowly loves
Slowly loves
Slow
