your covers only make me wonder about your other lovers
you're bored by my small-town confessions
but in my chest beats a bravery that you shielded from me
and with her it's easy to look in the mirror
as apples fall from the tremor tree to kiss our starless sheets
i can't wait forever for this
caroline, i stole you from a better singer
because when the music ends, we're all just a mess
and i don't pretend
feeling between your shoulder blades, i knew you were not awake and i prayed
for our clothes to return
because it makes me shake to think that the lines of your shape might point away from me
in germany, we could be friends, and i would pace and drink
jumping down stairs while the mortars fall silent in the street
