Kite

Do you want someone to love you
Do you feel out of control
Stare at the mirror
'Till your eyes bore a hole
Cover it with glass
Cover it with bone
Cover yourself up
The night gets cold

I can fly don't let go you keep me tethered
Cut my string I'll crash into the sun
I lied so much just weigh my heart against a feather
I don't need sex or food or anyone

Would it make you happy
If they thought they were enough
After a lifetime of trying
To matter this much
You could fake all affection
To an innocent child
Clip their wings and watch them
Sit and cry

I can fly don't let go you keep me tethered
Cut my string I'll crash into the sun
I lied so much just weigh my heart against a feather
I don't need sex or food or anyone

Look at your naked figure painted on a canvas in an infants room
His eyes trace over lines for years awakening something far too soon
A scary thought that you've been drawn maybe at least one thousand times
You've made a fortune posing nude for the infants' eyes

I can fly don't let go you keep me tethered
Cut my string I'll crash into the sun
I lied so much just weigh my heart against a feather
I don't need sex or food or anyone
