You want a man full of
more dangerous ways
you're guarding your ground , that i'm sure of
you're cutting your gold with grey
and you're showing your pinkest parts in my absence
and telling nine lies in the moonlight
and you're showing your pinkest parts in my absence

You slip on the yoke like it was a cute top
and drag a frozen lake full of fish and whatnot
across a living bed of flowers
and you leave it laying heavy on the bed of ours

Do you see a cold floor in your future?
or do you sleep soundly when the sheets are sour?

You wanted a man, i showed up
and gave you a rib from my cage
that rib went bad, you let 'em all rot
replaced with tattooed snakes
may your bones turn to rope and go limp inside you
if you were burning me boy you'd get ice
may your bones turn to rope and go limp inside you You slip on the yoke like it was a cute top
and drag a frozen lake full of fish and whatnot
across a living bed of flowers
and you leave it laying heavy on the bed of ours

I lit a match and watched it throw shadows
while you grew a hell on the top of our kingdoms

And you are
your father's daughter
and i am (i am)
no runner

Study an affair and contemplate how a complicated train of events
that ends in a final result of men's flesh becoming stairs
