about

Finally finding a companion and exploring the idea of relationships and how we change and adapt within them.

lyrics

When I first found her on my step her arms and legs were disconnected.
Heart was slung across her back; she cried her eyes out in my lap.
I picked her bones up from the street. She needed me to feel complete.
I grabbed a needle and some thread and sowed her arms unto her head.
Her mind was empty like a drum. Her thoughts stuck to my feet like gum.
I sat her in my favorite chair and tried to reattach her hair.

Now something here does not belong. I’ve sown her back together wrong.
I didn’t she’d look so strange with just a few parts rearranged.
I only meant to fix her up and leave her whole and happy but
I’ve sown her back together wrong. Now something here does not belong.

When I finished there were pieces left. I gave back most but kept the rest.
I used her nails to scratch my itch. Her hand or feet, I’m not sure which.
I fixed her broken dreams and smile. I put her best parts in a pile.
I’ve never really liked my frown. I hung it on her upside-down.
This nose is rather cute, and yes. I think it damn well suits me best!
Her love was cold and insincere. With gentle words I filled her ear.

Now something here does not belong. I’ve sown her back together wrong.
I didn’t think it would be so strange with just a few parts rearranged.
I only meant to fix her up and leave her whole and happy but
I’ve sown her back together wrong. Now something here does not belong.

As we dance away the moonlit night she holds her hand I hold my right.
We’ve traded more than words you see. I’d guess you’d say she’s part of me.
I’m part of her and you can tell. She has my mouth and wears it well.
I put her hands upon my hips, or are they mine? Oh, I forget!
She stays with me but not by choice. I hold her heart she has my voice.
And when we kiss it’s quite bizarre, ‘cause we’re not sure just who we are.

Now something here does not belong. I’ve sown us back together wrong.
I didn’t it’d be so strange with just a few parts rearranged.
I only meant to fix us up and leave us whole and happy but
I’ve sown us back together wrong. Now we don’t belong.
