Native Tongue

You are defiant And I'm caustic for no credible reason You're nascent from living untrue Still you cut me just by speaking my language 'Cause you know me in the way that you do But I have nothing to awake my sense There is nothing in the way of truth 'Til you bludgeon my ears with your silence And I cut you in the way that I do But I'm ready to lie now On my back by the tower of London And stare into the Sun But I know you So I'll just say it in my native tongue God, you know you're the one I imagined Yeah, the first and the last on my list There's still time, we can fix what is broken If you still want it well, hey, here it is From my thoughts to my lips with a vengeance From my lips spilling out on the street But in the light of your only admission Are you still perfect and kind as it is? So much more since I've been away Or has your heart been in a state of sleep? 'Til you commandeered out starship rebellion And you crashed it right here at my feet But I'm ready to lie now With my head face down in the water And breathe until I'm dead But I know you And I won't drown cause you're holding my breath God, you know you're the one I imagined Yeah, the first and the last on my list There's still time, we can fix what is broken If you still want it well, hey, here it is Some are blind Some are bad, some are poor, some are kind Some are dead and some only alive But I made it my job to behold you And build a statue to you in these lines At a moment you were dead asleep Men came to take you somewhere else Though they told me that they'd tell you I loved you I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you" and "I'll tell her myself" I said "fuck you, I'll tell her myself"
