What She Uses to Whisper Sweet Words

from Dull Days by Sleepy Hahas

/

lyrics

The scent of your bedroom follows me home each night
I wash so my mother can’t tell
It’s not there in the morning
So I write in a notebook
What I’d give for a glimpse of the smell
The marks on my shoulder are outlines of what she
Uses to whisper sweet words
And though it might hurt when she digs in so sharply,
It’s still nice to feel loved at all
I helped her find her clothes
For me it was easy,
I knew just what I doing
And I suppressed whatever guilt was growing in my head
And faced my face in the mirror

Words like these rescue me
And I think that we’re finally there
His dark, old, and ugly
Face inside my head
Contributes to her blank stare

“I liked where you touched me but Pat I just don’t know,
We could’ve moved way down south,
With a man in a big house, with five or six figures,
With probably no feeling at all.”
I might have a back yard
But I couldn’t share it
With something as big as your dog
I’d wait maybe 8 years and prove I’m a grown up
And maybe I’d steal your love

Words like these rescue me
And I think that we’re finally there
His dark, old, and ugly
Face inside my head
Contributes to her blank stare

The extent to which I love you
Makes me blush in front of you
So instead I’ll just say it in song.
