Flower Face - Polly in the bed

Overwhelming ecstasy Our bodies move in harmony Always waking breathlessly From dreams that leave me wanting more of you These silly games we play Stupid ways to make you stay My heart's split open on display I can't wait another day To touch your face, to hold you I just need you by my side tonight Overwhelming ecstasy Your name repeated endlessly Ice cream by the movie screens We'll make out in the backseat of your car Ripped shirts and perfect throws 'Til my body overflows In the summer afterglow I love you more than you will ever know But it's alright Just keep it all inside tonight We can leave right now, never come back home You're all I need Forget everything that we used to be Take me to another place, fly me up to Jupiter We can run away But I'll always be at home with you Overwhelming ecstasy Your skin is like a melody Your heartbeat brings me to my knees Just begging for a chance to simply Taste the moonlight on your lips The fever sings, the honey drips Curtains closed, the record skips No one's has ever loved like this I'm certain, it must be holy To feel something so pure Overwhelming ecstasy Twisted in your entropy Clinging to you desperately And I can taste the sweetness of your breath The stars are screaming loud The world outside is breaking down Burning cities, whispered vows And I can feel you all around me Nothing feels the same Nothing feels quite like you We can leave right now, never come back home You're all I need Forget everything that we used to be Take me to another place, fly me up to Jupiter We can run away But I'll always feel at home with you And if you run, I'll be right behind you We'll make it out Nothing left between us but light and sound Take me into outer space, fly me up to Jupiter I am yours forever And I'll always be at home with you

Daylight, I dream of you softly I wrote you a letter that will never reach you In Montreal, the days are much colder there Now you grow older there without me On the lookout, baby, won't you look out? A car full of raccoons, I think that I'm crazy And downtown, the bar lights illuminate Lost in a cityscape where I try to find you You walk like a miracle, bathing in starlight Your voice burning holes in the frame I danced in the parking lot, cried in the taxi home 'Cause I still remember your name And oh, I'm not in love anymore, anymore But I will keep you close to me forever Moonlight, I dream of you endlessly Drowning in reverie, waiting for morning Dim light, I'm drunk at the bar again Holding a stranger's hand, a crowd with no faces And there you are, beautiful just like the first time You reach out, I'm shaking again You're gone in a moment, you leave me alone But I swear you were real in my hands And oh, I'm not in love anymore, anymore But I will keep you close to me forever Well, I know these words might mean nothing now I'm stuck in this ghost town Your softness still haunts me Someday I'll find my way out of here If you don't change your mind, my dear I'll take you with me

You slipped suicide notes beneath my pillow as I slept In the morning the sun didn't come up, and the sun never came up again Everything here reminds me of you and it's getting harder to sleep The sheets on my bed still smell like your skin And it makes me sick, you make me sick, but why did you have to leave? I told you "never die", I told you "never leave" I didn't want you to haunt me, baby You slept in the backyard under the tree I didn't want you to haunt me, baby I don't want you anymore I don't want you anymore While your mother arranged flowers in the vase downstairs I undressed in your room The night was quiet but the sirens blared in the evening gloom I find traces of your footprints on the floor, I laugh at things I never would before Who are you to make me new? Who are you to leave? Let's drink to our eternal life And all the things that brought us closer to the sky Our endless passion, our endless strife When you pushed me to the edge but never let me fly The curtains open to the streetlight glow I didn't want you to haunt me, baby I wish I could sleep out in the snow I didn't want you to haunt me, baby I don't want you anymore I don't want you anymore I don't miss you anymore I don't need you anymore

I want the parts of you you only show To the corner of your bathroom mirror I want the parts of your hand-grenade heart That beat slowly with anger and fear I want the parts of you you only show To the birds outside your bedroom window I want the teeth that you lost as a child That you hide in a box under your pillow I want your quiet, your screaming and thrashing The salt on your lips and the hands that God gave you And I want your violence, your silent sedation Your moon eyes, your telescope, morbid fixation And I want your pyro, your born-again virgin Your hands on my insides, your fingertips crawling And I want your Jesus, your suicide mission Your lips on the microphone, soft disposition And I want your parties, the shark in your water The scrapes on your knees and the blood that spills over And I want your zeroes, your polluted marrow The sweat on your palms and your surveillance shadow I want your secrets, your clementine fields The ropes that you climb up, the parts that won't heal I want your safe word, your passive resistance The sickness you foster, your favorite addictions And I want your nightmares, the ghost in your doorway Your paralyzed sleep and your- I want you, butterfly, I want you, sailor I am your lover and I am your jailor

Never thought that you'd teach me to walk away You said, "I love you so much, baby, won't you stay?" So it goes, goes, goes, so it always goes So it goes, goes, goes, so it always goes I went down to the river to wash away the things I've done All the names I traced into my skin since you've been gone And his hands, they feel just like yours against my arm But his voice, it sounds nothing like yours when you're telling me I'm wrong I sleep in agony, I sleep alone Your hangman hands have got me cold Guess you don't know, no, no, guess you'll never know Now you don't know, no, no, now you'll never know So I went back to the devil and told him everything I know Let him drink my blood and feed me wine in the TV glow And his hands, they feel just like yours around my throat But his voice, it sounds nothing like yours when you're begging me to come home I went down to the river to wash away the things I've done All the names I traced into my skin since you've been gone

Cigarettes and champagne You break through the outside and look right into me Now nothing feels the same I guess I should have learned this long ago But I always kept my eyes on the ground This world just got too loud We've got friends, we've got places to go But I can't take my eyes off of you We've got time, we could take this slow But I can't keep my hands off of you No one knows me quite the way you do Cigarettes and champagne I want to sleep beside you at the end of the world When there's no one left to get in our way Your cold hand clings to mine, walking home And your eyelashes catch the snow You know I love you so The freckles on your shoulders and this burning in my eyes When I just can't find the right words to say All these blurry eyed mornings and confessions in the night I love the way you keep me awake We've got friends, we've got places to go But I can't take my eyes off of you We've got time, we could take this slow But I can't keep my hands off of you No one knows me quite the way you do No one loves me quite the way you do
