lyrics

i want to be a fragment of a hurricane
i want to bind and weep as dew
i want to bead up and dribble down the windowpane
with you

hosanna in the highest one at the party
i’ll ride it out until i’m right again
you’ll trade me in for kisses and campari
i just wanted to be your friend
i just wanted to be your friend

i dove into you and waded strange
to the ladder, i was christened in the flood
you dripped off my nose and onto my page
and you rended me in smudge after smudge
and i remembered that you’d never give a fuck
and i remembered i could die of you if i tried my luck
i remembered i could die

there’ll be no fragments purling to a sea
i’ll be smoking in the vestibule
there’ll be no beading or needing of me
not the loneliest molecule
i thought love was the only rule
i thought love was the only rule
