|
There are parts of me he'll never know, |
|
My wild horses and my river beds, |
|
And in my throat voices he'll never hear |
|
He pulls at me like a cherry tree, |
|
And I can still move, but I don't speak about it. |
|
Pretend I'm crazy, pretend I'm dead. |
|
He's to scared to hit me now, he'll bring flowers istead. |
|
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone |
|
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, |
|
Somewhere to go. |
|
And the dogwoods shimmer in October sun, |
|
'Oh, sweet thing', he sings to me, |
|
'You're the only one.' |
|
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone |
|
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere |
|
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone |
|
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, somewhere to go. |
|
And I don't know why I can't tell my sister, |
|
He spat in my face again, and I don't want to die here. |
|
You know that dream when your feet won't move, |
|
you want to come but your body won't let you. |
|
He steals it from me. |
|
He steals it from me. |
|
It shines like sweat, like jewels, |
|
Like something that has died to soon. |
|
He fucks with the beauty. |
|
A kiss, a kick, a kiss, a kick, a kiss kiss kick. |
|
He steals it from me. |
|
It's out of my hands again. |
|
I need an island, somewhere to sink a stone |
|
I need an island, somewhere to bury you, |
|
Somewhere to go, to go... |
