Lyrics
Kiss Me Idle
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
roses dead in dirty water held up by the vase
once a gift good-bye but now remind me to replace
hardened petals bang the dresser when they fall away
kiss me idle
kiss me without make-up, leave no marks upon my chest
kiss me for no other reason then to give your eyes a rest
kiss me slow and leave me lifeless, let this all digest
kiss me idle
slowly, slowly, the longer it takes the better mistakes we end up stumbling on
i wouldn't want to leave upon your tongue a sour taste
leave it foiled and disappointed, wanting to be chased
a mouth that's open wide and speechless seems like such a waste
kiss me idle
one time lazy, another time dear, despite all your fears of outlasting my love
i can't afford the stubborn sleep on photographs of birthdays past
so close your eyes and catch your breath and i will wait right here
i tied my fingers to remind me to leave you every day
while my hair is growing white, the strings are turning gray
one by one they come undone until they fall away
kiss me idle kiss me idle
