Black Lab - your Body As A Marker

Oct 13, 2011 21:28

I take you out buy you shoes 
you take me home and help me choose 
between the kitchen table and the bed.

you open up my stubborn mouth 
you feed me like a summer trout 
rising up to breathe between your legs.

hold yourself up high 
hold yourself up high. 
your body as a marker 
a beacon in the dark.

stay where I can reach 
stay where I can reach. 
your body as a marker 
of what I am so far.

you wake up wrapped around my waist 
I wake up to the heavy taste of you 
hanging heavy in the air.

if I could find a words so sweet 
that would cut you up and make you start to bleed. 
bleed heavy in my hair.

she's cinnamon in my brain 
cinnamon in my brain. 
she's cinnamon in my brain 
cinnamon in my vein.

catch me once before I die 
with someone else make you cry 
the way you're always scared I'm gonna do.

and all your fear won't have been in vain 
and all these years of going insane 
a sweet vindication for you.

hold yourself up high 
your body as a marker 
a beacon in the dark.

stay where I can reach. 
your body as a marker 
of what I am so far.
