lyrics

She’s awake in a shirt that’s a size too large
Just to feel if the thread count was up to par
Early rays want to meet her, she keeps them out
And even the dogs are afraid to shout

Her small hands of lavender and cardamom
Hold the lamppost of a man that she’s leaning on
And when her rising tide’s too old to break
It’ll be the dogs that keep her awake

She rubs her given purity in the empty tub
Salvaging a whimper that she heard above
All without the sweaty grip she thinks she needs
Her hair runs dry and her back is clean

The threads were uninviting, the rays already know
And the ringing in her ears begins to grow
And underneath the tired suitcase hides honesty
But the dogs will gladly show her where it ought to be
