Scratch me out, free yourself Fast as you can Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift But most of the time it does

Unweighted down by passion or intensity Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts And he finds a home in me For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap

I wanna make a mistake, why can't I make a mistake?

Because the fact being that Whatever's in front of me is coloring my view

You deem me due to clean my view and be at peace and lay I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way, and say

Am I gonna heal from this? He won’t admit to it Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out It’s time the truth was out that he don’t give a Shit about me

So I had to break the window It just had to be Better that I break the window Than him or her or me

I am the baby of the family, it happens, so Everybody cares and wears their sheep's clothes while they chaperone Curious, you're looking down your nose at me while you appease Courteous to try and help, but let me set your mind at ease

But I'd like to choose right

I had fun, fumbling around All the advice I shunned

Won't do no good to go no distance The space between us is as boundless as the dark

How can I fight, when we're on the same side? How can I fight beside you?

So I'll fight again, again, again, again, again

Saying there's nothing to it And then letting it go by the boards And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me

And there, you got me, that's how you got me, you taught me to regret

You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun And when I think of it, my fingers turn to fists I never did anything to you, man

I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way, and say I've been getting along for long before you came into the play

I fight him always and still

I have too been playing with fifty-two cards Just 'cause I play so far from my vest Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard

Oh, on the periphery Oh, on the periphery

My ills are articulate; my woes are granular

You'll say you'll never give up seeing eye to eye

I'm gonna do it on purpose I'm gonna waste my time 'Cause I'm full as a tick

Please forgive me for my distance The pain is evident in my existence

See myself something different Though I try to talk sense to myself But I just won't listen

I couldn't get a clear view And as he went on and on It wasn't the outside world I could see

Please please please No apologies At best they buy you time Until you next step out of line

I'll know, I'll know And you can use my skin To bury secrets in And I will settle you down

I'll soar the uneven winds Complain and blame the sterile land But if you're getting any bright ideas, quiet dear I'm blooming within

I've been a bad, bad girl I've been careless with a delicate man

Just mush And that signature thing is only growing harrowing

It was a filthy pane of glass

Full is not heavy as empty, not nearly, my love Not nearly, my love, not nearly Give me the first taste

I was on to every play

Every single night I endure the flight Of little wings of white flame butterflies in my brain

I'm undecided about you again

That your wicked words should work in holding me down No, it doesn't seem right To take information given at close range

My fan was folded up and grazing my forehead And I kept touching my neck to guide your eye to where I wanted you to Kiss me when we find some time alone

Under the waves in the blue of my oblivion Under the waves in the blue of my oblivion It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion

And maybe if you tried it out You won't like it when you're crying out

And pry it open, hoping for an encore

Before the image that you burned me in

Looking for a strand to climb, looking for a little hope Baby said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine A fail to kiss is a fail to cope I said, "Honey, I don't feel so good, don't feel justified

And maybe I'd relax, let my breast just bust open My heart's made of parts of all that surround me

He give me the gouge and he take my glee

But even when the window's clean I still can't see for the fact That when it's clean it's so clear

You got your game, made your shot, and you got away With a lot, but I’m not turned on

I couldn't take the embrace of a real romance It'd race right through me

Gonna hover over your life Gonna keep you reaching When I'm gone like yesterday When I'm high like heaven

I've been careless with a delicate man
