I have lied I have been so jealous of you Your glittering family, words overdue And all the green paper you can draw I have wanted to be you my girl, a searing fire, whenever I saw you light sheen of sweat over my hands clutched together, lips clammed I have seen nothing but yet want everything because it's you; your words, your touch, your life And most of all I want to watch you fall Away or closer, for me or for else I cannot -bear- you being perfect

Overdue Words
I have lied I have been so jealous of you Your glittering family, words overdue And all the green paper you can draw I have wanted to be you my girl, a searing fire, whenever I saw you light sheen of sweat over my hands clutched together, lips clammed I have seen nothing but yet want everything because it's you; your words, your touch, your life And most of all I want to watch you fall Away or closer, for me or for else I cannot -bear- you being perfect
