Did you come here
for that look on my face
when you ask me
if I'm sure I can wait
I know you're anxious
baby I'm anxious too
don't try to linger
there's so much more you could do
Were you insulting?
did you come on too strong
I saw her leaving
I should've followed her out the door
I know you're faded
baby I'm faded too
Let's try to mingle
Let's let our bodies talk us through

Welcome Back

Welcome back
last time that you were here
your mother told me you were smoking crack
Welcome back
last time that you were here
you told me bout your daddy how he
Left and stole your mother's pride
now all she does is wait and hide
the corners of her seeping eyes
that she believes her son has never seen
So welcome back
we'll see how it lasts
see how it lasts
Baby, lately you've been quite lazy
feelin' on me, wishin' I could save you
and I'm not sure I need that kind of dayjob
so we'll see how this lasts
we'll see how this lasts
Welcome back
last time that you were here
my sister told me all about your track
Welcome back
last time that you were here
you told me bout your mother how she
Lasted for a little while
but held out for a teasing smile
from men she loved with lips so vile
that she pretends her son will never be
So welcome back
we'll see how it lasts
see how it lasts
Baby, lately you've been quite lazy
feelin' on me, wishin' I could save you
and I'm not sure I need that kind of dayjob
so we'll see how this lasts
we'll see how this lasts

Missed Cues

Here’s the start to our verse
brought to you quick by the rate of my tears
back when we committed our words
the power’s on me to keep the birds
Show you off to my friends
comfortable in all the good things they say
tell me you’re so fine
talkin in your line
full on that oration
sure in my ovation
It’s fun to make myself move
in part ‘cause I’m wanting to prove
I’m flowing and glowing
the love that you’re sharing
has always got me knowing
My power lies in the love that I try
I’m a bloodthirsty shark
the fever I’m feelin is all yours to start
Try to race and ply
breakthrough the boundaries of your sigh
we would both reach out
pushing the limits, the loud that we shout
Ignorant to the worst
my arms were still solely wrapped up in your thirst
rub my skin and slow
take off the shield I’ve been pulling and tow
It’s up to you where we should go
‘cause I’m no good at making my mind up on my own
you were you were the one to
clean up my little missed cues
but we’re a bit short of that mess now
So we drop back in,
figurin out how our colours fit
now that I’ve admitted my worst
the power’s all yours to bless or curse
Still chat with your friends
waiting for periods to stop and stand
told me you’re still fine,
playing in your prime
remember my patience in keepin with relations
It’s hard to make myself move
my fuel is the chance that you’ve
stopped thinking, and missing
I can’t be alive if I think we’re gonna fix it
My power lies in the men that I try
it’s not a walk in the park
feelin with you is a rhythm in the dark
Try to pause real slow
is this how we both could grow?
we could both reach out
fingering air with my self doubt
Hoping for a cure
finding it in the place of my worth
rub my skin and cut
reach my hand, hold my arm out but
It’s up to you where we should go
‘cause I’m no good at making my mind up on my own
you were you were the one to
clean up my little missed cues
but we’re a bit short of that mess now

Flirty

Wild time
2am makes the cold grow as she climbs
Hear her words
drop back into lungs
like cashings into night
oh the darkness, still steals her fight
hey hey hey don't pull her away
when did she say she was okay?
Hidden out
hints of snow make the windows all self-doubt
Thrash and fold
hike through pages long
flush the hem and wash your skirt
oh the darkness, still steals her flirt
She got it bad boy
she got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
she got it bad boy
she got it bad
So when her memories start falling wet
you told her not to waste her time feeling that
and all the broken doors creaked
wind seemed to be their only kin
crept into her little heart
she's too weak to be smart
She got it bad boy
she got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
she got it bad boy
she got it bad
