Domestication
Once again, I've been alone too long
I arrived, thistle-strung
Built a body from the bone you throw on
I was cold, I let my hair grow wild
I shook the dust from my boots
I hid my teeth beneath the honey jar
I was born a wolf in woman's clothes
Shadow-stain, blue and gray
Tore a hole in every dress I made
Knit our limbs and trimmed the ivy back
You let me lie in your bed
You saw my hunger
Called it tenderness
Take me gently
Make me into somebody easy
Fables speak and needles stitch
Oh, I only wanted to be easy
Call to all the low and snowless ones
Ever dark, ever quiet
Never barking out loud
I'll be gone before the dawn kicks up
I have no patience left
Won't tuck my tongue into my mouth
Take me gently
Make me into somebody easy
Fables speak and needles stitch
Oh, I only wanted to be easy
Ah, to be easy
I arrived, thistle-strung
Built a body from the bone you throw on
I was cold, I let my hair grow wild
I shook the dust from my boots
I hid my teeth beneath the honey jar
I was born a wolf in woman's clothes
Shadow-stain, blue and gray
Tore a hole in every dress I made
Knit our limbs and trimmed the ivy back
You let me lie in your bed
You saw my hunger
Called it tenderness
Take me gently
Make me into somebody easy
Fables speak and needles stitch
Oh, I only wanted to be easy
Call to all the low and snowless ones
Ever dark, ever quiet
Never barking out loud
I'll be gone before the dawn kicks up
I have no patience left
Won't tuck my tongue into my mouth
Take me gently
Make me into somebody easy
Fables speak and needles stitch
Oh, I only wanted to be easy
Ah, to be easy
