Hush Now

The sky looked like a bruise
I had upon my left shoulder
Sycophantic yellows turned to blue
It was like the time
When I broke down in the restaurant
Primrose was in season
But I cried for violets

Hush now, I'm only lying to myself
Someone tell me how to feel
Hush now, I'm only lying with my mouth
And I can't believe it

Silky battle scars
Tendons wrapped around my bone
Feed me milk and honey
Will I grow strong on my own
And will I still surprise you every time that I take you home
Cannot see tomorrow
It's just colors all alone

Hush now, I'm only lying to myself
Someone tell me how to feel
Hush now, I'm only lying with my mouth
But I can't believe
It's a damn shame I keep lying to myself
Someone tell me how to feel
It's a damn shame I keep trying to figure out
How to play to win

I know I have been the prettiest morning dove
I dress up in a body that behaves
Cigarettes
Place your bets
Rest them on my dirty tongue
I cannot tell you what I have become

Hush now, I'm only lying
Hush now, I'm only lying
Hush now, I'm only lying
