You mustn't give your heart to a wild thing, the more you do the stronger they get till they're strong enough to run into the woods or fly into a tree and then to a higher tree and then to the sky.

Angels

I wore a shirt that didn’t fit, you wore something black you living heart-attack,
Too many souls cluttered that night my wit was dry,
You asked if I had any funeral plans if I was dying young,
You held my hand it drove me crazy,
I have learned that angels don’t wear pushup bras,
I have learned that angels don’t get too far,
When the nephilim fell from their crack in the sky,
I wonder if they ever wondered why?
I have learned that angels don’t kiss and tell,
Angels spend their savings at their wishing wells,
So tell me is angel is it tough getting by?
When you’re living a life around a lie?
I love you most when we’re asleep, I wanna cut you off but the blood will seep,
And this bed’s far too white to risk a stain,
If I held your hand would you slit my wrist if I kissed your neck would you break mine?
I sit you up straight it bend’s my spine,
I have learned that angels don’t wear pushup bras,
I have learned that angels don’t get too far,
When the nephilim fell from their crack in the sky,
I wonder if they ever wondered why?
I have learned that angels don’t kiss and tell,
Angels spend their savings at their wishing wells,
So tell me is angel is it tough getting by?
When you’re living a life around a lie?

Rita, Rita, I wish I’d never met you I wish I never wrote this song,
Baby, baby, you climb into my brain, convince me I’m insane, I can’t say that you’re wrong,
Rita, Rita, I get scared when you’re calling I’m kinda scared I’m falling for you,
Baby, baby, I hate the way I love you, I wish I didn’t need you, but I do,
And I told you, I don’t want you,
Drop you first chance that I get,
Then I’ll hold you and I’ll taste you,
It’s just like my tongue never left,
And I told you, I don’t want you,
Drop you first chance that I get,
Then I’ll hold you and I’ll taste you,
It’s just like my tongue never left,
Rita, Rita, I wish I didn’t need you, I wish that I could leave you, better yet,
Baby, baby I wish we’d never met, I wish that you did not exist,
Rita, Rita it hurts my head to hear you talking, I can see myself walking away,
Baby, baby you’re crawling in too deep, you’re stealing all my sleep, I hope that you don’t stay,
And I told you, I don’t want you,
Drop you first chance that I get,
Then I’ll hold you and I’ll taste you,
It’s just like my tongue never left,
And I told you, I don’t want you,
Drop you first chance that I get,
Then I’ll hold you and I’ll taste you,
It’s just like my tongue never left,
I get scared that we’re falling in love, I get kinda scared we’re falling in love,

Mila please talk to me, please talk to me,
You’re the only thing I see,
You’re holding my head up, despite the vibrations,
So baby I’m in love or maybe this is desperation,
So Mila never leave me be, never leave me be,
You’re the air that I breathe,
You’re hurting my head and you steal my concentration,
But baby never leave and never end our conversations,
Please understand this is delicate, I wanna keep you close but out of sight,
This is definitely not symbiotic, I need you like a cut needs a knife,
And so I’m stuck not knowing what to do this ice is getting thin,
Said I’d never get a bad tattoo but you’re trapped here under my skin,
Mila please talk to me, please talk to me,
You’re the only thing I see,
You’re holding my head up, despite the vibrations,
So baby I’m in love or maybe this is desperation,
So Mila never leave me be, never leave me be,
You’re the air that I breathe,
You’re hurting my head and you steal my concentration,
But baby never leave and never end our conversations,
‘coz oh we never talk, we never talk now anymore,
oh won’t you please, talk to me,
we never talk, we never talk now anymore,
oh won’t you please, talk to me,
Mila please talk to me, please talk to me,
You’re the only thing I see,
You’re holding my head up, despite the vibrations,
So baby I’m in love or maybe this is desperation,
So Mila never leave me be, never leave me be,
You’re the air that I breathe,
You’re hurting my head and you steal my concentration,
But baby never leave and never end our conversations,

You scatter broken promises I’ll see you next in Neverland,
I’m just up so lonely wishing time were water not sand,
You creased the page then let it fly, all paper planes come down,
Your bedroom floor’s become the sea and I see you’ll let me drown,
Annabelle I’m wishing, wishing, wishing you’d stay
You make life living hell, how you’re slipping, slipping, slipping away
And I’m like Bella, nine thousand miles ain’t too far,
But you’re falling black, and I know you won’t write back,
Ever again,
Ever again...
So you tie me up to this rocket ship but you’ve left the match at home,
This fuel won’t ignite itself don’t leave me here alone,
So take these ropes and untie me, Annabelle this is not ok,
There’s nothing left that I can do, nothing I can say,
Annabelle I’m wishing, wishing, wishing you’d stay
You make life living hell, how you’re slipping, slipping, slipping away
And I’m like Bella, nine thousand miles ain’t too far,
But you’re falling black, and I know you won’t write back,
Ever again,
Ever again...

What’re you doing in Paris are you trying not to lose your mind?
D’You cut your hair and set your bed alight,
D’You write a song that only sounds right,
Played on a red piano,
What’re you doing in Paris are you filling up your phone book?
With foreign numbers that can get you off the hook,
To fill the space that you designed,
But looked so wrong up close,
Whats it like in Paris are you writing scripts in times new roman?
Does it make you feel more adult?
Have you met a lot of men with stupid accents,
Dotted through their names?
Whats it like in Paris do you see things through a hazy filter?
Is your world made up of black and white?
Do you wish that you were home and still in high-school,
Does it keep you up at night?
I will grow my beard I will grow my hair,
I will write a song and you will not care,
You will see the world you will see the seas,
You will write a play a french tragedy,
You will write me in, You will make me sin,
I will take the sword I will let you win,
You will build a fence, you will build a gate,
You will throw the keys, I’ll accept my fate,
(Cut your hair, drink cheap wine ironically)
