She says throw out the dishes she says go to sleep she says we’re definitely getting older everyday you’re getting older everyday she says how does my skin look she says where is the moon she says no she says buy me a water, unlock the door for me, the bus is here she says I’m ten minutes late twenty fifteen thirty thirteen the astronaut is here and he’s about to leave without you goodbye rocket ship she says I’m a rocket ship she says you’ll never be a rocket ship she says your face is tarnished ruined like knives left unsharpened like blackberries creamed on the walls remember the deathwalls she says look at us we’re talking in rhythm now.

UNLOCK THE FRONT DOOR
She says throw out the dishes she says go to sleep she says we’re definitely getting older everyday you’re getting older everyday she says how does my skin look she says where is the moon she says no she says buy me a water, unlock the door for me, the bus is here she says I’m ten minutes late twenty fifteen thirty thirteen the astronaut is here and he’s about to leave without you goodbye rocket ship she says I’m a rocket ship she says you’ll never be a rocket ship she says your face is tarnished ruined like knives left unsharpened like blackberries creamed on the walls remember the deathwalls she says look at us we’re talking in rhythm now.
