Drawing the Demons

—

I learned to read

Yearned to undress

Felt the grass on my ass with the sun on my chest

Shaved my legs

Started to bleed

Left my heart in the yard where I first stood and peed

—

I felt like two halves of a soul

Don’t know where you could put me or where I should go

But I know

—

I will not go alone

I will go boldly nowhere and make it feel like home

New ritual: burning all my plans

& drawing the demons that crawl out my hands

—

Sailed on a ship

Safe in my mind

Touched a body part that I don’t have all the time

Bit my lip

Cried in the car

Tried to come out to mom but we didn’t get far

—

I think my friends might already know

There’s not just one direction where I’m meant to go

It all flows

—

I will not float alone

I will go boldly nowhere and make it feel like home

New ritual: burning all my plans

& drawing the demons that crawl out my hands

—

And I’ll burn up your lawn when I crash land in your yard

In the shape of a brain with two mouths- one might call you out

—

I will not crash alone

I will go boldly nowhere and make it feel like home

New ritual: burning all my plans

& drawing the demons that crawl out my hands

—

I cut off my tags

I shed my skin

Shook the rocks out my shoes and I started again

—

Rodeo Coven
hold me close

—

two beats of my heart

skipped when i saw you

spent a long time messing around

with people who don’t come through

—

when you say my name

my mind starts racing

spent a long time running away

but now i’m doing the chasing

—

oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh

oh oh

—

the birds and the bees

and butterflies in my tummy

even if i was a worm in the dirt

i know you’d still love me

—

when you sit real close

i’m baskin’ in sunshine

lotta people got a lot to say

but baby don’t pay no mind

—

oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh

oh oh

—

two peas in a pod

where’d all the time go?

as long as you’re by my side

we can handle the shit show

—

oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh

oh oh

—

i could take you back to my place

pour you a big big glass of water

make you something real good for dinner

then send you home with the leftovers

we could walk around the neighborhood

laugh at all the little dogs barking

get distracted by the sun set

and hope to god thatcha find me charming

guess i’m gonna go to hell for lovin’ you

better stay away from holy water

guess i’m gonna go to hell for bein’ true

’cause i could never be the perfect daughter

—

baby hold me close

hold me close

baby hold me close

baby hold me

—

oh oh
