make me believe in you
make me feel it
make me want to devote all my time
let me see in color again
i've been wearing these glasses
but lord i am still so blind
let me be a child
cuz i don't want a child of my own
make me believe in you
show me something that i can behold
this ain't a cry for help
i'm just wishing that i could feel something outside myself
but i know that it don't come easy
i've tried every number
and chased every tail
i know i can't win alone
but that i can fail
banking on an angel to trace all my trails
i can see you've been waiting
i can see you've been waiting
for me
and i've been waiting too
i've been waiting so long
for you
this ain't a cry for help
i'm just wishing that i could feel something outside myself
but i know that it don't come easy

in one sense my body's no longer mine
in another it's been returned to me
shrouded in smoke and self-forgiven
outlined in ink and losing sleep
i spent the night pondering if we could be
from my jail cell at the border that we cross separately
silver reflecting off a movie screen
barefoot echoes off the walls we pass between
last night i watched my shadow stare at me
disfigured by its own transparency
i'll stay underwater to keep you company
we'll be in the bath together drowning comfortably

daddy's daddy's dying
momma's daddy's done
baby daddy crying
baby momma won
we've got to lose some to gain
we've got to listen to speak
softly now, don't burn out when you're older
or you'll have nothing to leave
baby takes a blessing
daddy takes a breath
baby's close to walking
daddy's close to death
we've got to ask to be answered
we've got to take to receive
sink your teeth into your destination
or you'll know nothing but grief
baby be careful of walking
you might crack your momma's spine
baby be careful of running
you might run out of time
someday you will listen
it will be too late
you took all your money
didn't ask for change
we've got the right to be silent
we've got no reason to fear
daddy's here to repair what's been broken
or make it all disappear
carousel on the water
circles around the shore
daddy becomes father
but you're still on the horse

i am not loving anyone
i am not loving anyone
especially you
i am not telling anyone
i am not telling anyone
especially you
i am not blaming anyone
for my lack of love
though i tried to blame you
now i am not loving anyone
i am not loving anyone
and i never loved you
grind, pull, boil, pour
worn-through socks on the hardwood floor
i never learn from discipline
i make my own medicine
and it works the same
i figured i was beautiful
i took my hair and cut it all
and i look the same
you take the words from my mouth
you make small talk, i speak
nothing comes out
now i am not loving anyone
i am not loving anyone
and i am so loud
grind, pull, boil, pour
worn-through socks on the hardwood floor
grind, pull, boil, pour
worn-through socks tiptoe through the door
love takes the shape of a whale
and drifts away slowly
white-water capes on the blade of the oar
that i'm rowing
i hide my eyes in a veil
and pretend i'm not grieving
while you send your love in the mail
but don't care who's receiving
i am not loving anyone
i am not loving anyone
i am not loving anyone
especially you
