you're breaking in your skinny jeans up there on the hanging screens we hear your voice fly up falsetto slow listen carefully for secret codes god, your face we're gonna take a million moving pictures and post them all day and night sharp in color every bounce and movement slight right click save the smile of a man whose dreams have come true it's not half as beautiful on anyone but you you have no idea what you do dirty things we wanna do right back to you when you move that way oh when you squeeze your eyes shut, your magic powers show it's all we can do to bask in the glow the smile of a man whose dreams have come true it's not half as beautiful on anyone but you we're gonna take a million moving pictures and post them all day and night sharp in color every bounce and movement slight right click save right click save right click save

hook my fingers into his collarbones the strange sighs, the fleeting moans and no one knows what i unconscious wrote tucked away in a mental note and it's fine right here what doubt, what fear? you could write me letters i could sit up on a star but it wouldn't work you fill my dreams with feathers always, unknowing, invade it doesn't hurt so take me under wing take me under clouds take me in the lack of light for just a little while you're so maddening, angel you slip silent next to me what do you know, what do you see? shifting between heaven and hell between the sheets we might as well your voice crying clear keep me crazy down here you could write me letters i could sit up on a star but it wouldn't work you stumble through my curtains soft and glowing as i fade make it hurt so take me under wing take me under clouds take me in the lack of light for just a little while you're so maddening, angel i can't do this anymore i say as if i have a choice not to adore you, it's always you she said the unattainable only makes things worse the loveless flirt you stumble through my curtains soft and glowing as i fade make it hurt so take me under wing take me under clouds take me in the lack of light for just a little while you're so maddening you're soooo maaaaddening you're so maddening angel

music tells you who to be with, predicts yours and mine i stumbled on your quiet love like a cardboard cabin on the treeline it's your art and your fortress your gentle heart puts stars in me innocent bystander i understand what you see i hear a songbird scratching stories of defeat with her heart full of arrows throbbing underneath we're sitting on the same wire, burning both the same not like the outsiders, well this is why the hell we came from ears to eyes it all just burst into light the strangest purity, these feelings they've got a way of touching everything denied it's not a weakness if we feel so alive if i could pour a glass for you, maybe we could chase the end of every year until you're kissing on that face comforting is something and you know to do it well when the waves are greener foaming angry at the swell our tears are cut with sugar when we share goodness knows it's not the lightest load that we bear i'll carve a shape, a space for you a comforting place to curl into from ears to eyes it all just burst into light the strangest purity, these feelings they've got a way of touching everything denied it's not a weakness if we feel so alive the waning moon, diminished just so slight insanity is ours to howl about tonight oh what a hunger, full and ripe! IT'S NOT A WEAKNESS IF WE FEEL SO ALIVE

it's too simple to have me on my knees it's been six years, i just get easier to please or was that harder, dear? explains why i'm down here but that's only a wishful turn of phrase i know where i'm not, but you're on your way or asleep on five star sheets my companion constellations are bittersweet i haven't said, only quietly all the reasons you mean so much to me you threw a match on my nest of feathered ash my heart crawled back to my waiting ribs for that i never thought i'd make it, here's a body at your call please take it cuz' i wouldn't be here otherwise if i didn't slowly scald inside before the night is through we'll see if i can make it to the ecstacy, my secret high or i die of loving you don't make me explain things were awful before i'll drag myself around the universe on all fours rock and roll my life away who needs to sleep with the thngs you say my heart is beating and that's enough, you know it's tough but i'm only breathing for this kind of stuff tonight i'll dream of helping you get ready for bed turning on the radio and giving you... oh god no i'd be instantly dead i can think about it all i want not even there in spirit but somehow you haunt any empty ventricles between my lungs you find i can't decide whether or not i mind i never thought i'd make it, here's a body at your call please take it cuz' i wouldn't be here otherwise here's to that shifting in your skin, unearthly opal eyes before the night is through we'll see if i can make it to the ecstacy, my secret high or i die of loving you i'm almost tired of loving you

you're the last one, I know it's true this should be fun but it injures me too i hold my breath until I'm morning glory blue don't wanna exhale these eighteen hours until I see you it's like we've danced together, stuck in amber, hold me now just in your eyes a while, breaking laws of time in the mighty crowd i fight for my body back to move within this sliding tide cuz now I know that i don't really want to die and it's like I've never been this warm before banged against the rail all evening, lungs are raw and legs are sore sleeping on the sidewalk outside til the trucks arrive reveling in the confetti of bruises sprayed across both thighs i'm gonna laugh my world into a new design it hurts but I heal and I'm willing to spend my life in line there is no decadence just diner food and no defensiveness i'd spend so much to make this never end

i don't want to hurt anything i made myself believe in angels just to be beneath your shadow daydreaming i'm beneath you, i know handcuffed to the bedposts of my memories you're crooked and careless smiling over at me and here i warm myself with that imagery would you like what comfort you gave accidentally? i am greedy, i am magic i want you not for always, just an hour? really anything would do but there's nowhere in this world we can be alone what did my face say? i threw my heart at you forget the universe cuz' there's that neon blue i'm scared to death and it's okay i've been out here all night i can barely stand mosquito bites and screaming "worth it!' cuz' i love that man but he's leaving on the soonest flight i am creepy, it's unhealthy tell me what to do i can't seem to get a fix from pixelated views i could never, no i swear it still i want you words are useless i'm not sleeping like i used to and there's nowhere in this world we can be alone i die inside, it's so lovely when you moan it's fine it's fine, i'll watch you 'til you go

i wanna sing your lonely flat to sleep give you some company gentle enough to keep sometimes you ask me where my trouble's from and swallow half the darkness hoisting up this hum you analyze the eyes obsessive, filter through your hands as if it all came easy, i wanna be in your favorite band in the forgiven distance i forget that I'm not well steal your side's starlight to soothe my eyes from daytime hell unsure and awkward, i'm a mess of hurried words teeth full of compliments i slip away from her secretly counting down the days 'til we have some excuse to cross our ways oh no it's happening again twice as ridiculous as my jealous love back then i barely speak your name there's power in each vibrant third three times precisely, then three words more that won't be heard unsure and awkward, i'm a mess of hurried words teeth full of compliments i slip away from her secretly counting down the days 'til we have some excuse to cross our ways i wanna sing your lonely flat to sleep but my somber 3AM has pulled me somewhere deep
