Cherry Stems

You're the only light that I've been seeing.
You started talking I started listening.
I can't take my eyes off your tongue tying cherry stems.
You're the new religion I've been believing in.
Just a taste
of a life I'll never know,
But I could drive you home.
We're both drunk,
so let me carry your bones
Up the stairs where you can hold me close
So close
Even if it's just one night,
I don't care if you waste my time.
Now, I'm not in love but I guess there's potential.
We've got things in common, God knows you're beautiful.
And the way you've been staring is not so accidental
So come on over closer I'm so sure you're not so typical
Come on baby, I've been thinking all about you...breaking all the rules.

Suitcase Something

Paced this room a thousand times
White walls seem to hypnotize
Contemplating cable cars
It's hard to compare people in motion to people who don't move
Do I dare?
I'll be sure to wear a pretty flower in my hair.
couldn't find nobody so I wrote a love song
Still can't find nobody so I move along
Let's go somewhere new
Somewhere away from here
Anywhere you choose will be brighter
Let it go, let 'em go, let's go.
Under the streetlight out from my window
Coming from the ceiling
Can you hear it whisper?
Falling asleep to the sound of sirens
Somewhere in the middle I found the silence
Listen to the city, it goes uh-oh.

Hello? Yeah, you. What's your name?
I know you think this town is kind of strange.
I'd like to show you the brighter side if you'd give it a try.
So here you are so close to me
Your closeness changes everything
I just want to know you
something about you
Where did this come from? It started so innocent
I can't believe I ended up drawn to you this way.
But when you move in, so slow...surrender
all I wanted
all I wanted was you
You are an ocean
Tide brings a wish
Each wave a moment
Crash against me I feel the rhythm of the falling down slowly and sinking to the bottom again.
Against my skin you feel so cold, but I embrace you.
You're the one I yearn for
With a passion fire
You're the one I yearned for.

Hurt me again
My little hurricane
You came and destroyed everything
naive to say the least
but I don't want to leave you
Keep pretending you want me to.
These little black roots dig deep into my soul
hold on so tight can't let me go
Picutres of you
Lies that you made
Down on your knees
Feeling so empty
Radio plays into the night
Stevie sings, "Lightning strikes, maybe once maybe twice"
For my gypsy girl
No light in this place
I speak into the darkness
Will I ever stay
Are you listening?
You took what I knew and made it so foreign
So who the F***are you? You're not even sorry
Take me away from this place
I don't wanna leave you
I just wanna change my face
I just wanna change my name
