lyrics

I don’t rely on this sea of what I knew
You won’t be back in time for tea
The hardwood floors will leave a mark on my soul
I’ll scrub it until new layers peak through

You framed it for me
Somebody adorn me
But enough with this patience and tears
Glitter, bed sheets
Take the private out into the streets
Everywhere is my hair
Every lens is your friend

The city of eros has it’s place like a costume
I tried that on and found the fit
It’s seems on course like every evenings moon
Uncover the dark spot of choice

You framed it for me
Somebody adorn me
But enough with this patience and tears
Glitter, bed sheets
Let’s take the private out into the streets
Everywhere is my hair
Every lens is your friend
