neighbors think you're just a thug
pasty skinned tenth street kid
strung out on drugs
do you remember when we were six
and all you would whisper in my ear was
do you wanna kiss
let's make a castle in the catholic sandbox
where you and i can live and forget that
tomorrow ever happened
i'll be some captivating damsel
hopeful of the (k)night
you reek from lack of hygiene
and lack of attention
given to you
but at least in the moment of our pretending
drunk daddy's arm isn't long enough tonight
drunk daddy's arm isn't long enough tonight
