Show me some lightning breaking a prism's fingers
Don't do the right thing if it'll turn you bitter
I'm frightened of the way my head is building you a nineties house
I'm terrified you'll tear it down
You get me laughing when you're not acting funny
There in your fashion, do you think you could love me?
You got a jacket, and I still have it
Hanging in the front entrance
Holding my breath and
Keeping the scent still precious
I'm pressed to find a way to stop me building you that nineties house
I'm terrified you'll tear it down
So many things outweigh us but in my head there's a nineties house
Nothing's gonna tear it down
Doing the laundry
Sit at the table
Pouring the wine while you look out the window
Play the piano
Tend to the garden
Could it be everything you ever wanted
Tangerine peeling
Listen to "ceilings"
You buy me plums 'til they're out of season
Cleaning the baseboards
Kissing your splinters
Closing my eyes
Maybe that's what I picture
Maybe that's what I picture
I'm frightened of the way my head is building you a nineties house
I'm terrified you'll let me down
