Look up
what do you see
all of you
and all of me
florescent
and starry
some of them
they surprise
the bus ride
I went to
write this
4:00 a.m.
this letter
fields of poppies
little pearls
all the boys and
all the girls
sweet-toothed
each and every one
a little scary
I said your name
I wore it
like a badge of
teenage film stars
hash bars
cherry mash and
tinfoil tiaras
dreaming of
Maria Callas
whoever she is
this fame thing
I don't get it
I wrap my hand in
plastic to try to
look through it
Maybelline eyes and
girl-as-boy moves
I can take you far
this star thing
I don't get it
I'll take you over
there
I'll take you over
aluminum
tastes like fear
adrenaline
it pulls us near
I'll take you over
it tastes like fear
there
I'll take you over
will you live to 83
will you ever
welcome me
will you show me
something that
nobody else has seen
smoke it
drink
here comes the flood
anything to
thin the blood
these corrosives
do their magic
slowly and sweet
phone
eat it
drink
just another chink
cuts and dents
they catch the light
aluminum
the weakest link
I don't want to
disappoint you
I'm not here to
anoint you
I would lick
your feet
but is that
the sickest move
I wear my
own crown and
sadness and sorrow
and who'd have
thought tomorrow
could be so strange
my loss
and here we go again
I'll take you over
there
I'll take you over
aluminum
tastes like fear
adrenaline
it pulls us near
I'll take you over
it tastes like fear
there
I'll take you over
look up
what do you see
all of you
and all of me
florescent
and starry
some of them
they surprise
I can't look it
in the eyes
seconal
Spanish fly
absinthe
kerosene
cherry-flavored
neck and collar
I can smell
the sorrow
on your breath
the sweat
the victory
and sorrow
the smell of fear
I got it
I'll take you over
aluminum
tastes like fear
adrenaline
it pulls us near
aluminum
tastes like fear
adrenaline
it pulls us near
I'll take you over
it tastes like fear
pulls us near
tastes like fear
pulls us near
pulls us near
tastes like fear
tastes like fear
pulls us near
over
over
over
over
over
over
yeah
look over
oh yeah
I'll take you there
oh over
I'll take you there
over
let me
I'll take you there
there
there
baby
yeah
