sugarwater Lyrics

Here's a light which could be black
Flower
On steel and salt lillies tell me again that your mother was kind
I am a line which expands and I want to grow in an iron tin pipe
I say that to amuse you

Defiance in deep loneliness
Runoff that comes from rotten teeth
Devalue all our intimacy
Your dream boat is still incomplete
Glitter of all our history
Tastes like it lacks autonomy
I will rendezvous with poetry
Get your bedroom eyes away from me
Your voice sounds just like a tangerine
I am counting backwards from infinity
I am counting backwards from infinity
Count backwards from infinity

I turned away from my memory of you
You were too young to be so used
I hope you know I'm well on Earth
I hope you're comfy in the dirt
I am feeling antsy
If you moved to Mars would you still call me?
I had known you only briefly
But we spent our time so sweetly

Now my life is really messy
I trained my brain for the hurt to lessen
But I go back to the memory of you
As soon as I had forgotten you
If you moved to Venus
Would you still answer all my emails?
It was really nice to visit ya
When you were in Pennsylvania
