Let's hold hands and try not to speak
All will be forgotten
You broke down and I fell asleep
Leave tomorrow for talking

We rubbed it red and then scratched it raw
Oh, the seed we planted
Unbroken skin but hollowed 'neath
You were born to no one

If I could say to you what I think
I would write it down in verses
Release is bliss, so we hold it in
It's only silence between the curses

If I had a dime for every week
That you came home swinging
Swollen eyes and then puffy cheeks
Like the documentary

Please let me cry in corners of rooms
I promise I won't wake the neighbors
If it came down to him or to you
I'd rather piss in the sockets

All the boys went to be girls
That's why we love our mothers
You wake up wet when this dream ends
That's almost half of what I can offer
