Music & Lyrics by Drew Brody<\/p>\n
again last night my awful dream:
\nfat mannequins attacking me on every side
\ntoday i want to crawl into a ball and stay in bed
\nshut the world away
\nthey don’t need me out there today
\ni’m still changing i’m still learning, it’s confusing
\nand uncertain
\nhow i still believe in magic, but i don’t believe in fate<\/p>\n
i’m still unsatisfied, i think i know why:
\nthe hole i dug in june, i had to sleep in, in july
\nnow here we are two strangers in a bed
\nas the walls i painted brown
\nin candlelight, surround us
\nyou say: “move over”
\nthen something ’bout the moon
\nand we’ve earned another night here me and you<\/p>\n
even so, i brave the nightmares on my own
\nyou want to comfort me i know
\nit shows
\nit’s hard for you to say it but baby i know
\nbaby i know<\/p>\n
i can’t keep my house clean anymore:
\nthere’s underwear on every chair
\nand towels on the floor
\nthe fish keep dying off one by one
\ni bury them at sea
\nand i lose a little part of me — it sounds crazy
\ni know their lives are short
\nbut each one gone reminds me
\nthat mortality is not a choice<\/p>\n
i swore i loved you before i knew your name
\nthe day i saw you play in the cafe
\ni’d never heard a song sung just for me
\ni was hypnotized (and slightly terrified):
\nwe had the same hands, they were the same size
\nwe had the same lips, that sang the same lies
\nand i stole you for the night
\nto kiss you in the streetlamp light<\/p>\n
and although your songs were bullets to my soul
\nyou need to keep the peace at home
\nso i’ll go
\nthere’s no need for explaining it baby i know
\nbaby i know<\/p>\n
this will be our final night:
\nthis love affair just isn’t fair, you can’t deny
\nwe both know that my head’s not in the game
\nif i were happy with myself,
\ni could begin with someone else
\nbut my darling, i’ve got so much work to do
\nso much to figure out
\nso i can’t belong to you
\ni can’t belong to you<\/p>\n
and i know you need me open where i’m closed
\nyou need me present where i’m gone
\nso i’ll go
\ni’ve hurt you and i can’t change it oh baby i know
\nbaby i know<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
