Damp

could I rest it here for a little while
I wouldn't ask you to hold it
I’ll just lean it on the kitchen tiles
sometimes it slips
it might just catch your eye
would you stand it up 
if you happen to be nearby

I don’t know 
the force it takes
is it love
or a godly state

I know I’ve just landed 
but let’s get out of town 
the beast machine 
is full of warning sounds
my words are caught 
in the dryness of my mouth
there must be a damper place 
to let it all come out

I don’t know 
the force it takes
is it love 
or a godly state
to give it up to you
a gift a body cruel

I’ve got a breakdown 
scheduled in the basement
baby won’t you take me there
I’ve still got on that dress
it’s still my sunday best
I wanna show the world
I care

I’ve got a breakdown
scheduled in the basement
baby it’s just down these stairs
I’m just like the rest
I just wanna rest
I just wanna rest this head

I don’t know 
the force it takes
is it love 
or a godly state
to give it up to you
a gift a body cruel
