lyrics

I thought I saw something real in Barcelona, in Brooklyn

But I’ve learned the power now of manic delusions

I remember Leonard Cohen

And your tears and how you used to cry

And you’d thank me, you’d thank me

For not asking you why

My darling, my baby, we have a bond that will not break

It will not change, it will not fade

No matter how many times I am replaced

Stay with her, and stay away

Stay with her, and stay away

Did you wanna ask your little lady

Why she’s crying and changing her sheets

Why she’s lighting the sage as you’re biking away

Well I can promise you she’s gonna sleep all day

Feel the weight

Your native state

Feel the weight

Your native state

I remember all the chiller names you had for disrespect

Your cruelty and cavalier way with regret

Was proved by the news of how you moved inside my long-haired ladyfriend

My darling my baby

I hope you’re more than just a pretty face

I wish you well, I wish you peace

I wish you real love someday

You’re beautiful and you’ll always meet someone

But when you’re gone

You’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm
