lyrics

I never drowned myself in honey
Now who could love me?
And now I will die ordinary
Now who could love me?
Nestled in a sleeping sickness
Now who could love me?
I’ll never really know what’s in us
Now who could love me?

Now my poet’s blood has run dry
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Dull enough he wouldn’t ask why
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Choking on what liberates you
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Forever yours in indiscretion
Now who could love me?

I keep myself like orphaned secrets who wander home when they get out
And even by my own admission my condition blares but never resounds
If there’s nothing more to be then may I simply do no more harm
A catalogue of obscure sorrows
Now who could love me?

Now my poet’s blood has run dry
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Dull enough he wouldn’t ask why
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Choking on what liberates you
Tell me who could love me, tell me who could love me
Forever yours in indiscretion
Now who could?

Hard as your heart in afterbloom
Why did it die away so soon?
And now the feeling’s all flamed out
I’ll die forgotten

Wrapped in the feathers of stranger days
Do lions still lurk out in wait?
In here I exist dutifully
But now I’m no one
