Caramia Blank notebook in a back pocket fade You used to mock me sometimes I would cry When I was home later Cause you hurt my feelings Why, why, why I said write it down in your notebook, my wannabe, Harriet the spy
And some say your genious Is in your madness Will you get better And then will you leave us? How you mixed with the darkness at such a young age Your chemistry, science and violence turned silence to rage
Why are you dreaming this? One shoe off and a bridge to cross over And where is your taxi fare Are you left by yourself, are you left by your lover? You know three nights straight now I dreamt I kept both of my shoes Now I've forgotten my lines and I've misplaced my cues And there's a sea full of faces and a show to go on And I'm struck mute at entrance with nothing to draw from
And there were the secrets The big bang and the bigger joke But you seemed to know all of them And injustice makes you red with choke But you loved like you're desperate You don't know what love is And I thought that if there was one thing I could give you, one thing I could give you, Then maybe it was this
With your head on the bedboards The anguished repeat The sweat of our sadness The twist of the sheets I don't want what's best for you where will I be When you've found it Y'know I pray a lot bout these bad feelings inside But I can't pray my way around this
Why are you dreaming this? One shoe off and a bridge to cross over And where is your taxi fare Are you left by yourself, are you left by your lover? You know three nights straight now I know I've kept both of my shoes Now I've forgotten my lines and I've misplaced my cues And there's a sea full of faces and a show to go on And I'm struck mute at entrance with nothing to draw from
