Your back curves like a creeping vine 
With the answers in the fluid in the stem of the spine 
In the black-coffee bowl of your eye 
Why do you overestimate the size of the lie? 

I've seen 
The dangers of 
Your rising sign 
But I swear 
I'd like 
To drink the fuel straight from your lighter 
It's all inside the wrist, it's 
All inside the way you time it 
I resent the way you make me like myself 

My nerves jump 
Like a boiling pan 
Like a skillet full of oil spits, 
Rattling on the burner 
When I stumble onto the thought 
Of the match you lit and dropped and set the 
Dial to slow yearn 

I've seen 
The dangers of 
Your rising sign 
But I swear 
I'd like 
To drink the fuel straight from your lighter 
It's all inside the wrist, it's 
All inside the way you time it 
I resent the way you make me like myself 

Can I spell it out? 
Should I spell it out? 

I've seen 
The dangers of 
Your rising sign 
But I swear 
I'd like 
To drink the fuel straight from your lighter 
It's all inside the wrist, it's 
All inside the way you time it 
I resent the way you make me like myself
