lyrics

Like a dancer, shrug off this pliancy.
Imagine me all trussed up in finery!
What a thought!
As if I could be caught, like a drunk in a winery.

Bridal veils- huh- more like blindfolds.
Well, thank you so very much-
I'll be sure to be in touch if I ever decide
to forfeit my life.

Don't stay up all night waiting.
I'll be praying for some kind of religion;
a god or a being, above or below or on any side at all:
stop this sinking feeling in the pit of my soul.

Hold my hand.
(Am I still solid? Oh god how I shiver and shatter!)

Does it even matter?
If love sleeps in my heart, I mean.
The impossibility of what you ask of me is all-consuming.
Like death looming over my head.

(pitter patter, in my bones;
feel a winter of fear settle over my leaden throat.
How casual can I appear when I am so near to passing out?
It shames me how clear it must be that I'm totally freaking out.)

Hold my hand.
(Am I still solid? Oh god how I shiver and shatter!)

Does it even matter?
If love sleeps in my heart, I mean.
If love leaps through my veins, I mean.
If love weeps behind my words, I mean.

Does it even matter?
Does it even matter?
Does it even matter?
