these legs are tigers
made of paper, such flammable paper
and these hands are clay
so fragile, so very breakable
moths eat holes right through
the fabric of my heart, you can see right through
but it still beats on
beats on anyway, pulsing in rhythm
in one hand you hold
the delicate olive branch, so green and leafy
but in the other you hold
the violent sword, fearsome so fearsome
leave nothing to chance
I promise we'll never, never be bored
there are so many
things I never found, lost in the fire
let me sink beneath
the weight of all the things, all that I lack
nothing makes me cry
I used up all my tears, crying over you
go down the rabbit hole
to see where it leads, so windy & twisty
it's getting colder now
and I've forgotten, what I once knew
you find it hard to move
your lips are turning, so many shades
gonna have to let me go
but please don't drop me, from such great height
I see your wheels turning
please don't warn me, I don't wanna know
bought a ticket today
to go see so & so, to go see them play
It just might be fun
but you never know, no you never know
