Gravity (Pauline's Response To Amy)

(album: The Concussive Caress, Or, Casey Caught Her Mom Singing Along With The Vacuum - 2003)

I know you and I know you need someone to hold you all the time
All the time
I know you and I know you need someone to hold you all the time
All the time

So who's cupping you right now, underneath your shirt?
And who watches you from below when the breeze goes up your skirt?
I know you and I know you need someone
In the night to press you down to the mattress, in your bed
Someone to hold your body to the ground
When all that air gets in your head
I know you and I know about the hands that have you right now
From behind, can you feel those hands? They're not mine.
It's fine.
Cause I, I can't protect you from all the things overhead
There's those hands that have you, and Amy
How could I compete with gravity's hands?
Hold you tighter than anyone could? it will always have you
