Frida Kahlo
In her flowered gown
Sleeping softly in the sun
Under white clouds
Are we reckless now
Losing pieces of ourselves
Oh, my love
I am not who I thought I'd become
Oh, oh my love
Do you think we're better on our own
All alone
Like, Vincent Van Gogh
In his yellow house
Pacing shadow in the dark
Under blue clouds
Are we lonelier now
Than we were
Oh, my love
I am not who I thought I'd become
Oh, oh my love
I am almost ready to give in
To give in
To begin

If You Want It

I see the way you look at me
Across the room
You're all alone
I notice all the subtleties in front of me
You wanted me to know
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want it right now
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want me too
I see the way you undress
You tell me that you want me close
I want to see the shapes you make
The way you wake
She turns to me and she says
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want it right now
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want me tonight
I am waiting for you
Oh, to say the words
I'm ready for you to take it
In my ear again
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want it right now
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want me tonight
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want it right now
You can have it if you want it
You can come get it
You can have it if you want me tonight

Crying in Your Sleep

Love, I’ve been thinking
What’s this life that we’re living
It’s true, I’ve been untrue
It’s not fair, but I told you, don’t keep me here
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
Love, what you thinking
We’ve been trying
Been persistent
It’s not like we can see the future
It’s not like I believe in fate
Oh you’ve been
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
No one knows what’s in your soul
So try to let it go
Love, what are we doing
True, we’re only human
It’s not like we can change the past
It’s not like I can take it back
Oh, you’ve been
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
Oh you’ve been
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep
Crying in your sleep again

I won’t let you down my love
I won’t fall apart again
I may have my doubts my love
But I won’t let you down again
Things are looking up
I’m looking up at you
I finally found a way up
I want to hear you sing
I want the world to stay up
I’ll never bring you down
I’ll only lift you up
You are a part of me
Things are looking up
I won’t let you down my love
I won’t fall apart again
I may have my doubts my love
But I won’t let you down again
Things are looking up
I fell apart last year
I thought we’d never make up
I can’t believe you’re here
I hope I never wake up
I want to let you know
I’ll never fuck this up
I won’t let you down my love
I won’t fall apart again
I may have my doubts my love
But I won’t let you down again
Things are looking up

Unheard Choir
03:11
|

You should know that I feel you now
That I carry you all around
Through the maze of veins you’ll circulate
Til the blood is crystalline
You should know that I hear your voice
In the silence between the noise
In the songs you bring
I can hear you sing with the unheard choir
Our bodies disconnect
There’s always something left
You should know that I see you here
Where the faces disappear
In the empty space you congregate
With the souls in serpentine
In the embers of my dreams
I can keep you here with me
So I hold you close
I won’t let go in the final hour
Our bodies disconnect
There’s always something left
Even when our minds won’t recollect
There’s never nothing left
You’ll never be alone
