I wasted all my time
Talking to a friend of mine
Soft sticks and gentle wine
He blew me off like I was a dandelion
He blew me off like I was a dandelion
Oh, radadatadidada, ratatatalaladadidadida
I was okay
Doing nothing
Just following that boy around
That boy, ugh
That boy, ugh
We were alright
We got so high
He was taken but do I mind?
He said: "We can do that!" -no way, Kevin! “Now what way?” said he
Had I known that.
Coming todahahay I wanna hey hey hey hey!
Come on and let me please you
I will lay him down
Kiss him sweetly
Say come on, Kiki, ripple with me
I only care for the naked eye
If only I was there some time away
But we’re living in the world today
And we’re out of blessings
I wasted all my time
Talking to a friend of mine
Soft sticks and gentle wine
He blew me off like I was a dandelion
He blew me off like I was a dandelion
Oh, radadatadidada, ratatatalaladadidadida
I only care for the naked eye
I only care for the naked eye
I only care for the naked eye
I only care for the naked eye
I wasted all my time
Talking to a friend of mine
Soft sticks and gentle wine
He blew me off like I was a dandelion
He blew me off like I was a dandelion

The last time I loved you
The last time I loved you was a sunday morning
I wasn’t ready for it
and in the pale light I kissed your face
and told you not to worry
My darling, my darling, my darling
The last time I loved you I was the bravest
I was fucking wasted
I told you: “Tonight,
we are the only lovers left alive.
Babe, we are defiant.”
My darling, my darling, my darling
Carry me home and touch me before the others do
My darling, my darling, my darling
The last time I loved you I was a coward
You pressed me down
and in the pale light you kissed my face
and told me not to wonder
that I had it coming
My darling, my darling, my darling
My darling, my darling, my darling
Carry me home and touch me before the others do

Darling, Thief

Darling, Thief
Remember me
I am crumbling before you
Remember me
I've been taken by a bully
I have spread myself before you like a wild bird on the wind
I have tumbled down to catch those raging bullets in my wings
I have lit down to rest in the mud
To breathe in the dirt, breathe in the dirt, breathe in the dirt
Remember me
Cause I shake my soul for you now
Darling, thief
You know the way, you did the deeds
I have shown you what I wear when I am naked
I have thrown it into view and let you take it
Remember me
I have worn this heart for ages and it bleeds
It is beating just for rage now
Make it newer than the naked baby
Cause feeble hearts are only good for breaking
Remember me
I am calling out for you to come
Cause I need the fix for when I weaken
To be bold when I am not cause god forbid
That I turn around and fight it like a bad bitch

Kuku
dark haired
humble as the cool shade
we talk where time is a razor blade
kuku was too far away
kuku was too far away
if I could then I would today
reach down into her chest and take it from
her heart: the weight
kuku was too far away
kuku was too far away
you were too far away
you were too far

Untouchable

Untouchable
Don’t dream of me
Sleep for me, my darling
Your hands tied to your chest
Don’t dream of me
Weep for me, my darling
Your hands are on my breasts
At last I was out of my mind and untouchable
At last I was out of my mind and untouchable
untouchable
When I said I liked it I lied
I’m your wild bird, baby
I’m taken by tide
When I said I liked it I lied
I’m your wild bird, baby
And crippled is the tide
That took you from me
My daring, my thief
That left me red and blind
At last I was untouchable
At last I was out of my mind and untouchable
untouchable

Love is a Cold Place
04:29

Love is a cold place
I stood there on the outside
From there I watched my friends
Their lashes hang heavy with ice and
They tell me that up here it's nice
I watched their bodies heat up
They rub them thigh on thigh
But when they turn to sleep
They never close their eyes
Love is a cold place
It’s a cold place
What grew from the fruit that ripened?
A fruit so pure and clear
Another skinny daughter
That wants to disappear
Love is a cold place
It’s a cold place
I stood there on the outside
I watched you with your wife
Your lips they held a faint smile
Your eyes were fixed on mine
I watched you kiss with blue lips
Your tongues they met like rocks
I watched you touch her pale hips
Your fingers stiff with frost
You shivered like a small kid
You shivered like a boy
Not me I dare to say this
I rumbled deep with joy
Love is a cold place
It’s a cold place
Love is a cold place
It’s a cold place

Fruits of my Labour

Fruits of my labour
I want to eat at your table
Taste all of the sweet fruits of my labour
Mark the day, I’ll be gone
Mark the day, I’ll be gone
I know I have not been the bravest
Send for me cause I don’t know the way back
Hands I touched for less
Like a nurse at a sickbed

Daniel
Today I’ll hear a heartbeat
Today I’ll kiss a skin and feel
Your hair flows down your face like pale weeds
Your mouth sighs soft sounds just for me
I will keep you company
Keep you company
Keep you company
Keep you
My body flows like honey
We’ll smoke and let the words dry out
I’ll bite your toes for funny
I’ll feed your fire, all I want is to
Keep you company
Keep you company
Keep you company
Keep you
Daniel, make my eyes go milky
Daniel, make my eyes go blind
Daniel, with your hands of silk, oh
Daniel, how did you get so tired?
Daniel, make my eyes go milky
Daniel, make my eyes go blind
Daniel, with your hands of silk, oh
Daniel, how did you get so tired?
I will keep you company
Keep you company
Let me keep you company
Keep you

Beautiful Little Thing

Beautiful little thing
I don't want to talk
I don't want to talk at all
I just want to lie in bed with someone
Kiss until my mouth is big and swollen
And my eyes are glazed and all gone
And my hands hold onto you like you’re a lifebuoy and I am drowning and then we turn around and I ride you deep like a mighty river
I don't want to talk
I don't want to talk at all
I just want to lie in bed with someone
Someone, anyone
Someone, anyone
That makes me feel like I am a big wild bird
And a beautiful little thing, too
And a beautiful little thing, too
And a beautiful little thing, too
I still need you
I still wonder why the days are so damn long when i lay in bed at night and I can't find your hands and i can’t find your back and I can't find your wholehearted longing
I walk into town
Where i lost my mind
Where i lost the joy in anything
Anything i can think
I like playing nice
I like it when I'm spinning
And I like it when you all wear me down cause it's only thing I’m feeling
I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna talk at all
I just wanna lie in bed with someone
someone, anyone
someone, anyone
That makes me feel like I'm a big wild bird
and a beautiful little thing, too
and a beautiful little thing, too
and a beautiful little thing, too
