Fawning

Lyrics for Fawning

I chip the morning fingernails close curtain rails stalling I stalk the thawing a dog-eared page a borrowed phrase recalling I have rhymed and barely meant it a toy alarm to tease the ending reads don’t forget me I strain to hear the calling is it a beat how does it bend was it a warning but listen they’re applauding but it’s much too stiff the signal slips withdrawing I have danced and barely meant it a toy alarm to tease my exit oh don’t forget me don't forget me don't forget me don't forget me here it comes again the scoring a mirrored tongue a body young marauding now a king now a kid the clawing poised to sip swallow spit the fawning I have sung and barely meant it a toy alarm to tease my exit don’t forget me don't forget me
