At the therapists
We memorize
Foot behind yours
The way our ankles lock
The way my fingers brush
The cartilage, and the elbow angle is right
My head, your heart
Blood pumping
Just once
One body, frost and mist
Sun rises, yes, yes

Unfurl and let your flowers catch the dew
The way the raindrops fall the rain will fall on you
Washing, cleansing, sanity
I don’t want it, take me to the thorns
I don’t need it, only the pool, the warm
Pebble falling, sorry Martin, didn’t work
Sorry mother, couldn’t stop
Stripes and spots and prints and this

Idolize, Idolize
Trying to hide blind eyes from the sun
Why, wasted, wasted, wasted
The way you bite your lip
The way you bite your tongue
The gap between the teeth, the wisp
My mind, your will
Pencil talking
Not them
Fairies, fairies, fairies, bugs
Sun sets, yes, yes

Unfurl and let your flowers catch the dew
The way the raindrops fall the rain will fall on you
Washing, cleansing, sanity
I don’t want it, take me to the thorns
I don’t need it, only the pool, the warm
Pebble falling, sorry Martin, didn’t work
Sorry mother, couldn’t work
Stripes and spots and prints and this

That shade of green, it isn’t real
Mottled carpet, pointless magazines
Leather couch, candy, water, psychopathology
You, for dummies
Crinkle, smile, sleep
Unfurl and let your flowers catch the dew
The way the raindrops fall the rain will fall on you
Washing, cleansing, sanity
I don’t want it, take me to the thorns
I don’t need it, only the pool, the warm
Pebble falling, sorry Martin, didn’t work
Sorry mother, couldn’t work
Stripes and spots and prints and this

Veins, they say, they’ve got nothing to lose
Veins, they say, they got nothing on you
Veins, they say, veins
Veins, they say, so why do you choose?
Veins, they say, now what did you loose?
Veins, they say
I think it’s raining inside
