Best Imaginary Friend

you used to poke holes in the black paper so we could see out
you used to be heaven in that yellow shirt
fixed your lips with my false venier
I put your eyes in place

you used to poke holes in the black paper so we could see out
you used to say you were dying to forget Raliegh
I put your eyes in place
we didn’t have to be scared in my bear sheets

you used to say you were dying to forget Raliegh
your bare toes against the backs of my knees
we didn’t have to be scared in my bear sheets
he said you had an ugly face

your bare toes against the backs of my knees
when I closed my eyes you had a pretty face
he said you had an ugly face
you were bleeding back back back to me on paper

when I closed my eyes you had a pretty face
fixed your lips with my false venier
you were bleeding back back back to me on paper
you used to poke holes in the black paper so we could see out
