about

just an appreciation for all who have loved me in many ways.

lyrics

for all the shows when i took off my shoes
and sat on the ground when i tired of you
and your platitudes

for holding my head and making my bed
taking me out and driving me home instead
smiles in starlight

and you showed me how to be lonely.

i was quiet in school, always me told to be
but you had a way of pulling threads out of me
and we spun a web

and you heard me
and you hurt me

you found out that i had a habit of tearing apart at the skin
and you took on my bloody hands and said you’ll never do that again.
but you let me
and you left me.

you echoed my thoughts and gave them a home
you were my x-ray you saw me right to my bones

opaque as i was as a shy little girl
you shined me and dropped me ‘cause i was your pretty pearl.
a pearl in in the stars now

and you fought me
but never forgot me

and you hurt me
and you were me.
you were me.

we’re all made of dust
it’s all the same stellar stuff
i’m grateful for history’s repetitive role in love
i’ll meet you again.
