about

the second track from the new album, branches scratch the sky, out now

lyrics

how can you expect to cross my mind
if you can't even bring yourself to cross the room
i can almost see the knives you're sharpening for me
but i can't bring myself to care

no, i don't want to hold your hand
i might get blood on it
come on honey
who're you trying to kid?

sometimes memories
are worse than knives
worse than knives could ever be
so please believe

no, i don't want to hold your hand
i might get blood on it
come on honey
who're you trying to kid?

you assumed you had broken my heart
when all that ever broke was the skin on my lips

will this sweet heresy be tomorrow's gospel truth

no, i don't want to hold your hand
i might get blood on it
come on honey
who're you trying to kid?
