broken dam

I would love you on paper
I would love you any way I can
you dissipate like vapor rush like water
through a broken dam damn damn
I'd reach beyond my grasp
for a bleach blonde punk with a clasp
around my heart
I sunk my shot
I feel like a drunk lost in a parking lot
searching for her car
can you tell me where you are

well I don't know you well
but hell I know you better than I think
you're the page beneath my ink
the wave that pushes me
to swim or sink sink sink
you came to my door so sincere
with your basket of fruit
then you left me here
with the great big nothing that fuels my pursuit
thought I was through with that dear
so fucking through with the likes of you

then my paranoid brain came undone
and the void became a sun
now I know I'm not the one to blame
just hoping for a flame to match my own
groping for a smoother stone
tell me now don't we all want the same

but I would love you on paper
I would love you any way I can
you dissipate like vapor rush like water
through a broken dam damn damn
