I sit here
Watching and Waiting
Waiting room music
Watching the crowd
If I sit here
Watching and Waiting
Waiting for you
Watching the clock
Then I see you
Watching and Waiting
Waiting for more
Watching my eyes
I must leave you
Watching and Waiting
Because I can't stand
Another Goodbye

Drag me Down
Drug me up
I need you
I **** it up
You come back
You leave Again
I need you
I need you

Flowers in her
Hair,
She dances in the
Rain,
A Princess of
Destruction,
Mud in her
veins.

Her time is running out,
She's running into brick.
If we don't help her soon,
Our young Princess
Might just
Slip.

Treat me like a
Cigarette,
Dancing sparks
On the pavement.

I love when you
sleep talk
And breathe heavy
on my chest
I love when you shiver
turning blankets into nests
And eyelashes fluttering
small birds taking flight
I love when you
sleep talk
And hold me close
at night

My parents kept me from girls like you
You had clothes that were too tight and hair too straight
My parents kept me from girls like you
Your eyes full of light and you stayed out too late

My parents said "Those girls aren't fit to wed"
You had dyed hair and finger tips painted black
My parents said "Those girls aren't fit to wed"
Your legs were bare and you always talked back

My parents didn't like girls like you
You had faded tattoos and strawberry lipgloss
My parents didn't like girls like you
Your clothes smelled of boos and you perfected the hair toss

I always said hello to girls like you
You sneered at me and the laughs let loose
I always said hello to girls like you
Your eyes that never see and no sign of a truce

I can never be a girl like you

I could walk a tight rope across your collarbone and trapeze across your chest,
I would nestle in the crease of your elbow then escape down your forearm,
I can trace the veins in your wrist and read the future in your palms,
I will dance on your finger tips then tangle myself into the spaces between.
