Vitriolic hydraulic push Pull of sorghum Sticking sweetly in my veins Molar studded oatmeal cookies Crunching like a bad dream Dull rhinestone eyes Losing more and more shine every day Sluggish swole-bellied synapses Firing in my brain And I'm crying oversized tears Drowning like Alice in Wonderland I know you couldn't bear to breathe my air Or share our bed Or eat my cooking But "Did you know the capital of Uzbekistan is Tashkent?" No. Did you know I keep Austin up every night Begging for your scraps? Hedoesn'tlovemehedoesn'tlovemehedoesn'tlovemeandIdon'tunderstandwhatIdidwronghedoesn'tlovemeAustinmyheartisgone I can still smell you On my sunday dresses And I'm afraid of the washing machine And dryer sheets Afraid of what they'll take from me I had religion I had faith in you And I can still taste the body Of Jesus Christ Jesus Christ! All night Not like I lost anything important right? Well I'll probably never see you again But my daddy's got a shotgun Just in case

That ******** Torrent of Emotions When Your Heart Gets Broken
Vitriolic hydraulic push Pull of sorghum Sticking sweetly in my veins Molar studded oatmeal cookies Crunching like a bad dream Dull rhinestone eyes Losing more and more shine every day Sluggish swole-bellied synapses Firing in my brain And I'm crying oversized tears Drowning like Alice in Wonderland I know you couldn't bear to breathe my air Or share our bed Or eat my cooking But "Did you know the capital of Uzbekistan is Tashkent?" No. Did you know I keep Austin up every night Begging for your scraps?
