Any Body

Grey on my face and spurs on my tongue

And I could be anyone

Large as a lion stalking his lover

And small as the dying Sun

Don’t tell them what you would do in there

Fistful of flowers and fire for hair

Feet first, all fumbles, but he wouldn’t care

Fake human face trapped inside his stare

When I’m in this body

Put your pressure on me

When you’re getting closer

You’re getting further from me

But I'm the one who knows better

I’m the one who’s no better

And she’ll always know better

And she’s always no better

I could be best and I could be dust

And I could be what you think

Pinned to your collar, proof of your power

Code for what you can’t see

Don’t say it’s me when you know she’ll do

Things I could dream up and you’ll dream too

All legs and all eyes, like anybody moves

Perfect in the right light, like anybody’s truth

When I’m thinking clear

Like the light behind the window

Oh, I could see it peel off

And the voices become real

But I'm the one who knows better

I’m the one who’s no better

And she’ll always know better

And she’s always no better
