Crocodile Tears

I never wanted to be a hunter
but now I'm a crocodile killer
So you've taken to wearing your victims clothes, so do you think you know what it feels like?
Does it make you feel cleaner?
Because I've wiped so many crocodile tears from my tongue that it's bleeding,
And I taste blood in my mouth when I say your eyeshadow does not
Atone you tonight
I taste blood in my mouth when I say you identity does not
Atone you in my Eyes
I never wanted to be your coming of age
I never wanted to be your coming of age, I never wanted to be your big mistake, so you learned your lesson, what did i get
you got your adolescence
and I grew teeth for it
Asarum caudatum: teach my sorrow to be sacred
Dicentra formosa: show me how to grow back
Aesculus carnea: if it means I cant feel,
Dicentra spectablis: may I never heal
For grief is a holy thing for we who drank of a violent Spring
there is a place for this, for a pain such as this
for the green of earth will die and grow if we remember them not how can we know,
There is a place for this
for a rage such as this
and I never wanted to be a hunter but now I'm a crocodile, crocodile killer
and I never wanted to be a hunter but now I'm a crocodile, crocodile killer
and I never wanted to be a hunter but now I'm a crocodile, crocodile killer
and I never wanted to be a hunter but
I grew teeth for it
And I taste blood in my mouth when I say your eyeshadow does not atone you tonight (may I never heal, may i never heal)
I taste blood in my mouth when I say you identity does not
Atone you in my Eyes (aesculus carnea)
and the lipstick on your mouth will never change or take away what you have done to me
or stop what I will do to you
<3

So you wanna get on this?
Then baby, come along; if only our bodies would listen to what we've been saying
You say that you want it; you say that you KNOW it isn't wrong,
and I'm not one to tell you your mind, but something about this don't feel right--and that's alright!
Because there's a lag time in growing
between feeling and knowing
and I know your resolution's high, but it don't have to be tonight
and I BLESS YOUR SUFFERRRRRING
your crumbling and buffering
and now we're dancing in the 0's and 1's wondering what we'll become
and I wish I knew how to take my time on anything
because I know peace is a learning curve and i am drifting
through the rainbow road with indestructible light
but I fall off sometimes
I fall
I fall
i

l
l
you know I fall
Because there's a lag time in growing
between feeling and knowing
and I know your resolution's high, but it don't have to be tonight
and I BLESS YOUR SUFFERRRRRING
your crumbling and buffering
and now we're dancing in the 0's and 1's wondering what we'll become

I am a mamas boy, always have been,
I have a preference that's predictable
Tend me O Gardener
She's mean to me,
She's mean to me, but she loves to watch the way i take it
Mamas hard on me, she's cruel to me and every day I'm begging for it
Life is a cruel disgusting thing
I require no coddling
She comes to me with no platitudes, cuts my epicormic shoots
get the hori hori baby
I said get the hori hori
She's mean to me
She's mean to me, but she loves to watch the way i take it
Mama's hard on me, she's pruning me, and every day I'm begging for it
I take it, so i know that I can take it
I take it because I love her when she says to me
When you deny your pain you deny your life
To deny your pain is to deny your life
When you deny your pain your deny your life
So can you take a hit, so can you handle it?
She's mean to me
She's mean to me, but she loves to watch the way i take it
Mamas hard on me, she's pruning me, and every day I'm begging for it
When deny your pain, you deny your life
and I can take a hit.
