Babydoll Lover
01:55
|
|

cold night, midnight
take me to bed
don’t worry about killing me
i’ve already been dead
saturday night
sunday morning
warm touching skin
it’s all still sinking in
lilac legs, babydoll lover
dappled light, liquid lather
black lace, shaking languor
loose lips, raspberry liquor
i walk the apple green hill
with an afterglow, almost
as sunny as your sunny side eggs
and golden buttery toast

City Takeout Sign
02:10
|
|
||
you glow
like a city takeout sign
in the middle of the night
i still love you
even though i don’t miss you
even though you’re new
you go
like a busy bus route
in peak hour traffic
i’d still catch you
even though i don’t need to
you left a residue
that love is two months lost
i froze like the first winter frost
i know you were dreaming of something more
sorry to be a bore
i won’t come around anymore
you glow
like a city takeout sign
in the middle of the night

Star Storm
02:40
|
|
||
i’m a star trapped in the sky
turn me to dust
i’ll watch and i’ll cry
don’t want to let people walk over me
but you told me you love me
and you think i’m really pretty
explosions in my brain
you said you would make it rain
i said i don’t care
i’ll live in the water
until everything is fine
and he’ll take you home again
nothing’s wrong, nothing’s right, again
you loved me now, you loved me then
i hope i can play along
i’m in a star storm
you light me up even then
you glow, i know, take me again
you kissed me like an angel, oh, and then
i hope i can play along
i’m in a star storm
i’m a star trapped in your eye
lost my mind can’t feel anything
and it terrifies me
don’t want to let people touch me
but you told me you love me
and you think i’m really pretty

Fire Girl's Pride
01:29
|
|
||
i remember the fire even now
when there’s only ash on the ground
just needed one more night of heat
high and low, leaving me bittersweet
my whole body burned
when the leaves turned auburn
pain can be a bad desire
but at least i felt the fire
if you had stayed
i would have died
nothing quite like
a fire girls pride

Carousel (Demo)
02:24
|
|
||
i said i’m not scared of anything
you could leave, or you could squeeze
all the blood out of my veins
and my god i swear i wouldn’t die
all the beatings and bruises
don’t keep love from my opaque heart
although hazy space leads to madness
its a madness that is creatively precious
when this body is grossly at its grave
light binds to my carbon cells
and time keeps moving around
an annual carnal carousel
i should have died one hundred times x4
i should have died
but i am always alive

Have Fun
02:28
|
|

i’m not that girl you fell for
last freezing cold mid winter
got more meat on my bones
and got a lot to show for it
you know, i’m gone
don’t write, have fun
loving the wrong one
don’t fight, just run
i know she haunts you (and you let her)
you will never hear from me again
it’s safer that way
but know i loved you even when
you pushed me away
the red lights, our midnight fights
told me more than you ever did
one night, my drunk delight
i wear a mark forever in my skin
you know, i’m gone
i’m not that girl you fell for
last freezing cold mid winter
got more meat on my bones
and got a lot to show for it
you know, i’m gone

Stay Warm (Interlude)
00:58
|
|
||
eternally cold
i’m scared i’ll take you with me
when i freeze and sleep
my arctic wind will cool
and crystallise your hands and bones
i know it will
i need you to stay warm for me
don’t let my cold and purple skin
spread through your sunny, rosy heart
it’ll destroy it
don’t let it
stay warm
and happy
i always fall for the sunshine girls
and i turn them to ice

Preachers Kiss
03:31
|
|
||
baby pink and ruby red
blood and guts inside me, yet
i am pure, and real and true
the devil keeps bringing me back to you
the sun did rise and i did cry
salty tears, and used meat in my eye
lick caramel ice cream be sweet inside
you’re everywhere and i can’t hide
i needed to love you
you couldn’t decide
but when you did
my blood and guts fried
a predator going in for the chase
your fingers inside me, poison embrace
came to my senses, we can’t live like this
i was so overjoyed, that god damn preacher’s kiss
you needed to fuck me
you said you missed
the fire between us
and i just couldn’t resist
of course it turned out bad
you can’t fuck a girl and then get mad
that i fell for you, you knew that i would
i hate that i wouldn’t take it back if i could

True Love (Lucky)
01:05
|
|
||
i live each day
waiting for the sun to set
my cracking bones
are filled with regret
if i could share the load
i would, you know
i’d shine your shoes
and show you the road
i’d get you there before nightfall
where i’d have to leave you
like we’d never loved at all
true love tends to make me sick
true love has made me sick
but it’s all on me
‘cause i know i’m lucky

August Affair
03:10
|
|
||
threw out my ghost in the city
just wanted to feel pretty
we were the hottest girls at the party
kissing in the smoke, wandering hands
we were both there, living out our badlands
we didn’t care, we didn’t care
something in the way you grab my waist
something in the way you taste
something, something, something
and when you traced
my thighs, and looked in my eyes
i felt, this is about to take over the sky
and i didn’t care, i didn’t care
lights were off, we were bad
the best kiss i ever had
tongue licked away the sad
and i’m not sure anymore
why there were locks at the door
and no shells on the shore before
now i can see
she’s mine, she’s beauty
the best ones come free
it’s the power of three
what i had last winter
wasn’t love, it was an anchor
i guess i can thank her
for showing me love isn’t anger
she took me home, gave me a pill
and gave me a glass of milk
laid my head down, felt like silk
and i fell asleep to some piano music downstairs
she was right there all night after our drunken affair
and i didn’t care, i didn’t care
it was the best night i swear
- for billie

I'm Becoming Ok
02:54
|
|
||
i’m becoming ok
with love that only lasts a short while
i’m ok because it was there
and i was happy and i smiled
i’ve come to realise
there’s always gonna be someone for me
if i’m 33 and still stuck on a moment
or if i’ve just turned 20
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
i’ll cherish the spring days
i’ll cherish your hair when it falls in your face
and when i brush it away
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
all the people i’ve loved i still do
they gave me sweet seconds to remember
and when they went away i found you
i’m becoming ok
with scenes that would have kept me up
i’m ok and can forgive myself
because that’s a part of growing up
i’ve come to realise
some things fade and everything changes
it can be beautiful and fresh and clean
like the glow on the street, or two strangers
