about

Some strong language. F-word involved. Best described as a "fucked up little love song."

lyrics

I thought about calling you up
but I just lost the nerve.
Talking to you by myself
puts me all out of words.
But hearing your voice makes me
want to sing out like a bird.
I'd sing you a song,
but my songs are too long,
and there's better ones you've heard.

I don't mind saying I love you,
but I don't know if I should.
If I thought you might say it back,
I guess that I would.
The few times we touched
I thought I might melt right where I stood.
The warmth of your skin
is enough of a sin to hold me for good.

I know you're not perfect
I've heard stories of the scars that you bear.
But I'm pretty fucked up myself,
so I don't really care.
If you'd like to try,
I think maybe we'd make a great pair.
And if you get too stoned,
I'll carry you home and keep you safe there.

So bring out your skeletons, girl.
Bring out your dead.
Expose all your weakness and
let's put all your fears to bed.
And don't be ashamed
of the things that you did or you said.
Just wipe off the blood,
replace it with love, and rest your sweet head.
