Glaze

(If this is the beginning then why does it feel like the end?)

You are scared and alone
But you won’t be saved
Cuz you reap what you sow
And all the hope you crave

But you can come a little closer
And you can breathe a little slower
And just confine all of yourself to me

Simmer simmer down
Let me help you help you out
Tell me what you want to hear
Let me soak up all your tears
Cuz your sugar honey glaze
Is all I want to taste
Your skin smooth as buttercream
Sink teeth in your self-esteem

You can’t sleep without noise
It’s all that you have left
Your nightmares are poised
You dream in distress

Some come in little closer and I’ll show you what to do
No one’s gonna love you like the way I’m loving you
If you runaway you’ll run yourself into your grave
Don’t runaway

Simmer simmer down
Let me help you help you out
Tell me what you want to hear
Let me soak up all your tears
Cuz your sugar honey glaze
Is all I want to taste
Your skin smooth as buttercream
Sink teeth in your self-esteem

You stretch your wings a little farther
But your feathers turn to armor
You can’t see the forest for the trees
I know that time is feeling hostile
Your love will be the next to follow
But babe confine all of yourself to me

Simmer simmer down
Let me help you help you out
Tell me what you want to hear
Let me soak up all your tears
Cuz your sugar honey glaze
Is all I want to taste
Your skin smooth as buttercream
Sink teeth in your self-esteem

Simmer simmer down
Let me help you help you out
Tell me what you want to hear
Let me soak up all your tears
Cuz your sugar honey glaze
Is all I want to taste
Your skin smooth as buttercream
Sink teeth in your self-esteem
