lyrics

Once upon a time
In a world quite like this one
There was a girl
With thick hair
And a thick skull
And thick skin

She was in love with herself
For quite a short time
Because she poured herself in him
A man of course

She lived in a glass house
And she paved the walk with rocks
Telling her guests to
Come on in and take a shot

He had a strong arm
From years playing tennis in the park
But bragged that he hated the competition

And if time was real
It didn’t do them any service
It made her sad and made him nervous
Unsure how to feel

They both spoke too fast
The first hello until the last
But then again they were too quiet in the nights before the mornings after

They say fate is cruel for a reason
I think fate is ruled by the seasons
Giving people a need to be that close and warm

She was in desperate need of a hug
He wanted to hold her honest love
And from that they both tried to get along

But spring had other plans
She thawed
Got sick
So he put his hands in his pockets
Said he loved her but couldn’t touch her
Though she called for a friend

So she smiled and said
"That’s so fine
I’ll hate myself you can watch from the sidelines
Get attention instead of affection
I’ve always been a spectator sport"

And if time was real
It didn’t do them any good
It made her nothing and made him wood
And now their lips were sealed

So it had to end
No benefits beget from a friendship
Where one side slices their arms on the words the other side hasn’t said

Now upon a time they’re both at home
Better off best left alone
Thinking thoughts and getting stoned
Hoping to get caught in someone else
