did you see the blood start to pool
are you on the run until things cool
oh honey, you could give me your address
i’ll show up in my worse dress
i’m worth it

you can’t count on me
for most anything

so my lips are sealed
until we are healed

seems like it’s taking years

but here we are darling
failed stars embarking

could you draw a map
label it a rattrap

leave it somewhere it could go missing
tucked in a tree on the land i’m fleeing

like a little “you were on my mind”
the location you might never find
