a poppy little ditty with lots of piano and percussion that hangs a little on the opaque side, explains itself with girlish innocence |

Story Behind the Song
I wrote this song for one of my best friends in the world, we've known each other for years and followed the rollercoaster lines of each other's perspective lives-- its bizarre how you interact with people who witness your puberty...
this was my first attempt at percussion. I get an E for effort, right?
thank you radio shack for the mic, thank you july for the free time.
Lyrics
you are like your paintings
you are red white blue
and you change like the river
everything's a part of you
and 6 years is bullshit beauty
and we're still 16 holding hands making mockery and
you smile like it's a pity that you're mine
for the minute
yeah, but you're still mine
we are so amphibian we're webbed, winged,warm
and I'm more than happy here
holding sing-alongs with you in the storm
but I think so much in corrolation
with the blue lines that light up my frustration
but you still see me a sphinx inside your corner when you need to
and you need to
sometimes.
june's gone and left the town shuffling our freedom's down
pushing our rivers downstream
well I mean
down to me
and I am a loaded gun
gracefully come undone
but you smile like we never left our fun times
and I know its gonna be fine
growing up is breathing underwater
its all wish, dream, dread
and who am I
a poet, prophet, daughter
in the lines I draw, the lines I read
but I'm more than happy here,
cocky and cavalier
filling you in on the latest dear john
until he's going going going going going
gone.
make new friends and keep the old
one is silver and the other's gold (girl scouts song)
