I know you’re tired of wakin’ up on the floor
Pushed to the edge with nothin’ heavy to hold
Usin’ your clothes as a blanket and a bed
Holdin’ your hands just to lay your head.
I know you don’t remember ever fallin’ down
Who picked you up, who gathered around
But you don’t have to be his girl,
And you don’t have to be my girl,
You can always be your own girl.
With the sound of your feet you follow yourself to sleep
Restless and ageless and lookin’ for something to keep
When you finally fall asleep you’re awake in dreams
Hangin’ by the ankles in the skeleton ravine.
I know you can’t relax / your candle wax / you kicked the lights
