I keep cheating on myself
having affairs with attractive thoughts in persuasive clothing
running around naked with strangers
and netting them like spiders
A thought stuck on fly paper
And she's the one that woke me up early this morning
she makes me hate my music
she tells me there's answers to every question
which I think is a trick - yeah, she's a trick
homeless without a magician to put her back up his sleeve
She makes me try to express myself
like I'm some sort of puppet to my brain
(...)
I fucked her like a virgin, an unpeeled orange
she orgasms ink like a broken well
and my sheets are covered from head to footer
We smoke cigarettes in the dark together
and talk about mirrors and wheat fields and piano keys
we cuddle all night like two fetuses tied up by an umbilical cord
then I leave her for another early morning
to stare out windows and find a different partner
a different idea in a mini skirt
one that fits my high expectations
