it's all too hard to be here because of you you wanted me too i'm a big cold house on fire picture perfect pout it fits in my palm i can't curse this all i can blame no one a hairs breadth away and you're so far i'm a wave longing to crash all over you i'm a cloud waiting to burst thunderclap bright cold tail downy soft like kitten fur with pillow lips steal a piece of me from you a hairs breadth away and you're so far
