Gasoline Bath

[Verse 1]
My love is a miser’s love
I save it, i save it
You took a bath with gasoline and your skin is barely dry

Stillborn in an oil slick
Sweet angel of asphalt
What i’d give to watch you crawl beneath red heaven’s pyre

[Chorus]
When i see you i get vertigo
A thought’s brought to its knees
Like a mirror indiscernible
Through the blossoms of gasoline

And of course i’ve said too much
Because i still feel the same
How can you think that we should love
When we were both made for

[Verse 2]
I don’t want to feel your love or daylight, daylight at all
Sometimes, the words you say
I can barely even mouth

In a thousand prisms
And more hours
To gaze through their cuts
I won’t find the freeness of your form in my own lines
