letra de sexy legitimate threat - kleenex girl wonder

[verse 1]
twenty years of love and still no peace
a few tears, some blood, and a widow’s peak
the white flags have ceased their billowing
look closely, it’s just cheesecloth over window screens
i had to stay in on halloween
i don’t need more spirits following me
you know i scare too easily and honestly
i’ve always worn my fear a little awkwardly

[chorus 1]
like a medicine ball on a chain around my neck
the albatross flew away, i was out of my depth
in a monologue on a train, you lost the thread
and when the audience made it rain, you caught your death
now the bacteria will mull over what’s left
of the amphitheatre we built out of storm and stress
you were young, you were bored, you were unimportant
yes, you were dumb, hung up, and torn
but yet, when it came to the hearts you warmed
in a mask in a nurse’s uniform
you were clutch, you were such a s-xy legitimate threat

[verse 2]
my loneliness is k!lling me
the only respite, vivid dreams
there’s nothing left of our industry
just a plaque on a brick chimney and a nod of sympathy
squatters haunt the ruins, it’s abject anarchy
their lips are bound like books but at least their hands are free
so they paw through palimpsested pamphlets frantically
what happens next they see but they just can’t believe

[chorus 2]
ten simple rules from the mouth of a hungry god
gems and jewels from the canon that we once taught
a few clay pots from the all saints’ day séance
cause and effect out of absolute chaos
you say this too shall p-ss but it may not
’til the toll is paid or the trolls are all laid off
the open flame in the hole you made is hot
ergo the airflow comes at a cost
an impossible bid you met with a panel, a syringe, and a tourniquet
i’ll get you yet, you irreconcilable loss

[outro]
i been fingerin’ my rosary beads
considering going into poetry reads
watchin’ way too many jodorowsky movies
this wasn’t how things were supposed to be
i’ve never been good at apologies
i’m more of a dramaturge or at least a drama queen
but born with a body built for physical comedy
so tell me what you need or at least what’s wrong with me, please
please
please
please
