Mosquitoes To A Light

from People On Pause Go To Junktown by People On Pause

/

lyrics

I came for you in the summer
I came for you when I was pretendin' to be lost in a giant fountain
you smiled with a soup spoon
and pretended I was found

I see snakes in your hair
that I should avoid
but honey drips from my lips for you
and it's an all too familiar taste
I see double
mannequin girl
when your daddy ain't around
you have your cake and you eat it
but you don't kiss on the lips
your blowin' smoke
in the mirror you hold
but still I would take that walk on coals
just to smell each step
measured in burns
like mosquitoes to a light

I can't wait to have you there in the
silken summer black tar with squirrel nut sound
when your daddy ain't around
you have your cake and you eat it
but you don't kiss on the lips
when your daddy ain't around.
