lyrics

So now I guess I’ll put it all out in the open. Onto tape and the table where I cannot hide behind blankets and pillows or liquor; clouding my judgment and my head. You’re hand’s on my hand and my hands are over my eyes as we dance and we die. Were your eyes in mine? Was my hand on your hair or your thighs as I sat on your lap with my heart in my throat and my tongue on the executioners slab? The guillotine is coming and cutting this song in half.

So here’s the story that you’ve all been dying to hear. And when you hear it you will all most certainly die and say: “Just shut up, Jess. Just give up, Jess. Just let go...” Oh, it’s so over. So here’s the story with the broken pieces and the missing parts like my memory and these horribly hungry dreams. Can I just go back to sleep.

I could say so many things right now that each of you would be sure to misconstrue. And you know that I’ll do it just to keep you confused and guessing. So here it goes: Park the car. I know exactly where you are when you leave and the rain beats harder. Why is this so, so hard? It’s so hard…

My aunt combines two of my fathers favorite things in a cake for special occasions except for that women that he will never get to love the way he wants to love her because she just won’t stop running. Am I running? Are we running, darling? “Just run, run, run!” you’ll say.

Am I the only one inside this house that feels like a fucking ghost?
Oh no…
