Jeanine

(альбом: BURN PYGMALION!!! A Better Guide To Romance - 2019)

Jeanine, you're being followed by the ghost of what I can't absolve
Say you wanna go somewhere?
So do I
By now we're often saying our closing thoughts
But tonight... Something's hanging off of your tongue

Do you find yourself at the edge of my ocean?
Tip-toeing 'round the broken glass in the sand?
When you're feeling well
Maybe we can do something together

Jeanine you're giving off these psychic waves
Have you heard the news? No one's doing that these days
Let's not play these games
(Jeanine)
Love is just a name
(Why don't you ever say what you mean)
For you to call me by
(Are you frightened of me? Or the person you're leaving behind)

I milked a fable from your eye
The rawness of it made me cry too
But to be honest I would like it if you would cry more than you do

I'm just barely keeping up with my constant unraveling
You're so together, it embarrasses me
But your grace in the face of my apex terror
Makes me feel so secure

Guess it doesn't really matter if you're open or not
I'm verbose enough for the both of us
And we can't all be open floodgates after all
But you don't have to be a dam for me

Just like the smote cedars in the yard
I've fallen so hard for you
Don't you know I'm obsessed with you too?
When I told you I get crushed by my own ambitions
You said "Girl, ain't you ever happy?"
(No)
