Pick the splinters from my hair

Light the fire

Split the winter if its fair

If its lighter

Stick my fingers everywhere

Your pulse is tired

Stitches linger in my prayer

But you're lookin higher

And its not an easy one to tell when you're near

Forgotten briefly til the swell throws me clear

Imposter weekly clientele another year

Another cell another fuck you mind sincere

Well its a cute little gingerbread house if you're on the outside

Its no use til you let your fingers spread round the grease implied

My excuse and my ringer don't step with my shiver in stride

Smile and seduce til i'm thoroughbred scum and my trigger thinks twice

Its just the taste of lemonlime on your kiss

Smells like innocence

Its just a waste of fuckin wine on her lips

But she can't tell the difference

Pay six months on a dime to caper around

Til she's found her sense

Play tricks once at a time

Taper her down

Claim it your crowned expense

But its not an easy one to tell when you're near

Forgotten briefly til the swell throws me clear

Imposter weekly clientele another year

Another cell another fuck you mind sincere

Well its a cute little gingerbread house if you're on the outside

Its no use til you let your fingers spread round the grease implied

My excuse and my ringer don't step with my shiver in stride

Smile and seduce til i'm thoroughbred scum and my trigger thinks twice

Its no black and white its full color

Don't you see with your eyes?

Its not just me and my brother

Just the seas and the skies

Its not one way or the other

Can't you compromise?

Not my ashtray or your lover

Just your tears and your cries
