lyrics

Iced milk
That's my favorite kind of milk
You know how to make me cry
You will never forget
The times when I was upset
You will never let go
Of the time I said I love you so

That was something
There was something to be said for it
I didn't trust it
Still I felt it
And I feel it yet
You were perfect
You were my personal favorite
Love is heaven
Love was better when we made it

Brown hair
Clasped between your fingertips
I was there
Epiphanies caught in between my lips
You came over
And lit the dog house on fire
And as it smoldered
Revealed your innermost desire

It wasn't to love me
It wasn't to leave your man for me
You had trauma
Real trauma in reality
I got strong
I put on my favorite empathy
We talked it over
Over your shoulder they were laughing

Riceball
I still think about the months
We shared
Can you hear me now
What it meant in the course
Of your coming of age
Was it just a detour
Did you rip out that page

I used to dream I'd show up one day on your doorstep
I didn't do it
I told myself I could not force it
You never called me
I think you just didn't want to
But I never called you
So that might not be at all true

Brown eyes
That's my favorite kind of eyes
You see
Who I am inside
You spread me wide open
I never felt that again
You're the reason I sing
And I love you more than anything

You ruined my life
I'm completely screwed up
And it's all your doing
There's watery milk all over the floor
What a waste of two good things
I haven't been putting as much effort into stuff as I used to
I can't just go back to the way I was before I knew you
