Clementine

Oh, neon ballroom
Her sister's getting married
For the second time
Oh, dry-cleaned heirloom
The fumes are gonna kill you
But they smell so nice

At the edge of the bed
In my silhouette
Solemn she says
"I was beautiful then"

I take your hunger
Make it mine
I'll peel apart your clementines
Just promise if I change my mind
I'll still look like you
From behind they'll still mistake me
For that wild storm I knew

Oh, the glow from the streetlight
If i pretend to sleep,
Won't you carry me inside?

Oh, pick me up from the catfight
Give it all to be a witness to you
Just this time

At the edge of the bed
In my silhouette
Gripping my hand
"I was beautiful then"

I take your hunger
Make it mine
I'll build your safe house, tall and fine
Just promise if i change my mind
I'll still look like you
From behind they'll still mistake me
For that wild storm I knew
