rots_w_big_6.JPG im dreaming deep again
of beethoven's sweetest wren
when i'm underwing the traffic melts outside

i'm trying to free myself
put this obsession on the shelf
i'm a little concerned about my mental health...

if i gushed and told you everything
would you stand up run like hell and hide from me?
it's just these fears that i've got- realistic or not
they paralyze the heart of me, i know
go slow, i know, i know

wonderous normandy doll
i'm fixing tea to make you call
but that old black magic
doesn't work at all

stare at you for an hour and a half
just have to swear to make you laugh
but you're disappearing and not coming back anymore

if i gushed and told you everything
would you stand up run like hell and hide from me?
it's just these fears that i've got- realistic or not
they paralyze the heart of me, i know
it's a sad song but that's how it goes

yellow fog is lifting
and we're mellow waltzing
to the trash on the radio

and i'm fevered willing
i can feel you twisting
cascading through my code

if i gushed and told you everything
would you stand up run like hell and hide from me?
it's just these fears that i've got- realistic or not
they paralyze the heart of me
i know.... go slow... i know i know
