LYRICS

tell me how

I know we can talk about later
I know nothing really to discuss
I know that I got my little way of
complicating us, us, us

And it is all I ever feel
like nothing good is ever real
do you pretend the bad is good
I know you do
I do it too

I know
that you’d never do me wrong babe
even though sometimes I wish you would
cause I’m
really good at getting hurt babe
not so great at feeling good

and it is not for me to have
maybe not always but for now
my hand is always on my mouth
telling me how

and it is all I ever feel
like nothing good is ever real
maybe just scream my name out loud
drown it all out
tell me how...

new york

I came here, I waited
to see it, to say this
what started on fourth street is finished
Is finished

I came back to see it
Through new eyes
And feel it
I waited all night
on boards by the waterside

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn’t there but I came to visit
we sat on the bridge and talked of the difference

We spoke of the long ago
promised each other we’d never get old
but that was a whole life ago
and now I’m on my own

I came here, to see it
through new eyes and feel it
I waited all night on boards by the waterside

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn’t there but I came to visit
I slept on your floor watched the wind in the curtains

Maybe it’s enough to know
I never walk alone
I get by on my own
I’ll always be my only home

I came here, I waited to see it
to say this
what started on fourth street is finished

touched

what do you see in her
in her, in her
what do you mean I’m touched
it’s worse, it’s a curse
what do you need out there
get back in there
what about the little chair
we play piano on
piano on
piano on

Paranoid secrets
little dark secrets
reasons, no reasons
some will see, some will run
do you love me, love me,
do you really love me
mean to you
sorry too
why did I, why did you
why did you
why did you
