Slow Learner

Peel your lips apart
Thoughts crawl across your eyes like steam on a mirror
You copy my body language, mimic my tone
Like trinkets in a chest all plated gold
I’m cheap, factory production line
And you’re a handmade gemstone one a kind
I like breaking hearts, I’ll never show you mine
Unless you’d like to see it
Tonight can you show me how to dance, I’m a slow learner, okay?
Is this what they sprawled on the pyramids walls?
Do I breathe because I want to or do I do it for you?
Sweet saliva, soft pink light
If I kill myself would that impress you tonight?
Don’t tempt me I might
Cats in the cradle, silver spoon
If we both look now, do we see the same moon?
I cut up the air in my cold bedroom and saved a big slice for you
Tonight can you teach me how to sing, I’m a slow learner, okay?
Is this what they sprawled on the pyramids walls?
Do I breathe because I want to or do I do it for you?
Sweet saliva, soft pink light
If I kill myself would that impress you tonight?
Don’t tempt me I might
Yeah, I’ve been mugged, yeah, I’ve been drugged
They took my love and they fucked it up
Yeah, I’ve been mugged, I’ve been drugged
They took my love and fucked it up
I’m a slow learner
Is this what they sprawled on the pyramids walls?
Do I breathe because I want to or do I do it for you?
Sweet saliva, soft pink light
If I kill myself would that impress you tonight?
Don’t tempt me I might
