It's about time that you see me
Tell me what you want
Spare no detail

Fail,
I'll deliver the wrong dish
It's about time that you look here
Tell me what you see
Rake up my flaws
Talk behind a nervous, naked back
How awfully kind of you
To eat and leave

Time goes pouring in a cup, all
my empty calories
Eyes go from the ivory wall
back to the ceiling

I want you to see the
imprint of pharmacies
You dismiss me
I want you to see the
horrible life I chose
Hear constant wishes to get right
Never the penetrating notes

Of the unrelenting love song

It's about time that you see me
Tell me what you want
Spare me no detail
obviously
