Bluebird

I thought of you too quickly
My body went to work
I sent signals to my fingers
My lips became a smirk

I stroked you out, I cleaned you up
I loved you into life
I sent you to another world
But you just turned the knife

I don't want your love
I need your love
Give me your love
Don't love me
I don't want your love
I need your love
Don't love me

The shitehawk is nocturnal
He thrives in the night
Hiding in the bushes as he hawks his shite
He knows what's black and white
And he knows what's good and true
He knows all the right thoughts to think
And knows what's best for you

I don't want your love
I need your love
Give me your love
Don't love me
I don't want your love
I need your love
Don't love me

We talk to no one
We talk to all
We gab with ghosts in windows
But to see is not to know
To like is not to love

Never present
Never here
Never there
Locked in our loops of half-truths and trifles
And who are you anyway?
Who am I anyway?
Is there anybody there?
Does anybody care?

I don't want your love
I need your love
Give me your love
Don't love me
I don't want your love
I need your love
Don't love me
