My Marianne
In a van with six strangers but they’re my best friends
The drivers in a wolf mask, there’s glitter on the wheel
We kiss and it’s like I just robbed a bank at any moment cops will pull me out and take back all the happiness I feel
We’re screaming in Amsterdam, the cops come for real
I tell them you’re just rehearsing for your part as Norman Bates
Then we’re taking off our clothes
All the horror disappears
I don’t say a word, I let my touch negotiate
Do our little moments blur?
I could never be sure what was you what was me or the universe, running my hands through the sunflowers
As the last of them die
We say goodbye
It feels weird on my lips like I'm telling a lie
It’s almost sweet
I got stuck and rot
In your softest spot
It’s always been enough for me
You’re my Marianne
My coldest friend
I ran through your blizzard happily
All those years ago
I loved you so
But you should know it’s yesterday to me
It’s yesterday to me
In Christie Pits rear window’s on the big screen
You say I love you, I start to panic
As everything inside of me is calculating carefully, to love so unconditionally could only be tragic
I’m in your empty parking spot I lie there for hours
On a poem that I wrote for you, oh how dramatic
I’m standing on the hood of your car I say drive faster
And I hope you run me over, oh how romantic
Do our little moments blur?
I could never be sure what was you what was me or the universe, running my hands through the sunflowers
As the last of them die
We say goodbye
It feels weird on my lips like I'm telling a lie
It’s almost sweet
I got stuck and rot
In your softest spot
It’s always been enough for me
You’re my Marianne
My coldest friend
I ran through your blizzard happily
All those years ago
I loved you so
But you should know it’s yesterday to me
It’s yesterday to me
