heather martin

where are you going
i'm looking at you now
staring at your face
searching for a trace
wrapping my tears in your palm
bow to your feet for some calm

you're giving me your oxygen
i don't want it, rather smoke again
i'm touching your body
studying your mouth
crawling inside you
with your friends from down south

three days to say good bye
am i in your eyes?

come on and pinch
the skin
on my elbow
come on and steal
a thrill
in a cab
we'll bring it right back sir
just wanted to know what it was like to be her

how does your cat out live you
purring bitter peaceful at your feet
we already miss you
breathless cradled in a sheet

three days to say good bye
am i in your eyes?

come on and pinch
the skin
on my elbow
come on and steal
a thrill
in a cab
we'll bring it right back sir
just wanted to know what it was like to be her

the meaning in this, i guess i'm supposed to find
grateful heather, for this borrowed time

three days to say good bye
you never told me why
where are you by and by
can i come too if i try
do you count my cries
will it save you die
i didn't mean to pry
but i need to know
am i in your eyes
too sudden i do not comply
i don't want to watch you die
am i in your eyes

where did you go
i'm looking at you now
pounding my head
on the body you just left
are you all ready
are you sure
cause i'm fucked up and unsteady
my heart's feeling sore

three days to say good bye
am i in your eyes?

come on and pinch
the skin
on my elbow
come on and steal
a thrill
in a cab
i'll bring it right back sir
just wanted to know what it was like to be her

seems like there's nothing to find
heather heather on the mind
