Marinade

She got attacked by a pack of dogs
But she said, it's okay
I got some wilderness skills beneath my belt
She said she used to be a part of a scout team
They nearly made her leader one time
But they didn't have enough thread
To sew the patches on

And she said, do you know how you heard
About that family that burnt down in that house?
Well, that was hers
She said, it was just some hoax that she made up
To watch people cry
Yeah, she whispered to me softly

Well, do you want me?
Just how I am?
Do you need me?
Where I stand
Let's go steady
Let's make a plan
Marinade on that for a while
Yeah

She wanted to die by a river
She wanted the tide to come up and drag her away
So that when she's dreamin'
She can watch the tree line fall away

She used to draw rainbow faces in the sand
But the rainbow made the face sad
Had bits of foam coming out the bottom of its mouth
It's kinda funny that way

Oh, do you want me?
How I am?
Do you need me?
Oh, where I stand
Let's go steady
Let's make a plan
Marinade on that for a little while
Yeah
