as you're pressing every ounce of me
into the curb into the street I pray
that your strength lies in your body weight
and you will never live to see me fade
a crack in the alignment
of our fragile dancing frames
allowed for something not quite now
to seep into our brains
conjuring a creature far more strange
than our minds alone could ever once create
I'm just a girl, who'd like for you to stay
I'm just a girl, who feels you coursing through my veins
perhaps I should accept the role
of nothing when they find they're full
and see no purpose staying any longer
perhaps the cards are stacked as such
my hopes will never quite be touched
by those who think I am for which they hunger
I'm just the girl, who'd like for them to stay
I'm just the girl, with the needle to my veins
but of course the spoken words weren't meant
on something else your heart is bent
I see
but loneliness inspired me
to peer inside however dangerously
