dog ear - grace gardner lyrics

[verse 1]
i don’t need someone to lie for me
i pull my seat up to your table and drag my feet
you haven’t lifted a finger in weeks
getting on your good side is praising on my knees

you’ve only got anger and paranoia
onlook plenty of enemies
and a girl you alway say is hot
claws and everything
loved and hated six inches deep
only on your terms can anyone leave

[chorus]
you don’t cry
you don’t know what it’s like
’cause you refuse to say goodbye
to anything that’s ever meant anything to you

throw a compliment from the surface
every now and then
is all i have to do

[verse 2]
you’ve always got a new motto for the year
something weird like “i would rather be loved than feared”
still asking every other second if you’re liked here
you know the answer, and you leave it like a dog ear
you’ll only read
untouched books on [?]
magazines of fantasies on a shelf on how to stay small
scars on everything
friends with all five stages of grief
have you asked yourself why everyone leaves?

[chorus]
you don’t feel
you live in fear of something real
maybe this one will strike a deal
she’ll do anything
if you cut her clean
from your holding (this time)

it’s a pattern, now you have her
bidding the traders you’ve erased from your life
and mine

[bridge]
[?] will find me
guilty on all counts
i’ve withered down to nothing
defending of all ground
somewhere deep inside me
i’m seeing a way out
i can only dream of action
peril has worked out
i would trade my sorries for thank you’s
or try to handle things the way you do
fighting fire with fire is an old move
for me and you

i would follow every direction
lie to be remade in your reflection
you’d find a retroactive exception
but the point’s gone moot

[outro]
you know
you never say good*
