"Untidy Creature" lyrics
"Untidy Creature"
I heard the click of a tiny catch
I closed my eyes and you found the latch
I looked up and saw the bars intact
Locked up tight, the perfect trap
I rattle and shake inside
But I can't escape tonight
There was a time when I saw it outside
Followed the air, turn left, turn right
Now with a move, you closed the lock
The world outside, it's what I want
I rattle and shake inside
I push against your arms tonight
And it feels like we were broken
And I'm holding the pieces so tight
You can try to tell me I'm nothing
And I don't have the wings to fly
But there's too much here that's unspoken
And there's no tomorrow in sight
Could you love me if I was broken?
And there's no going back tonight
Looking at me like a problem to solve
Like an untidy creature that you can't push around
You built a cage, but your measurement's wrong
'Cause I'll find a way and I'll pick your lock
And it feels like we were broken
And I'm holding the pieces so tight
You can try to tell me I'm nothing
And I don't have the wings to fly
But there's too much here that's unspoken
And there's no tomorrow in sight
Could you love me if I was broken?
And there's no going back tonight

Speedy Ortiz - "Fun" Criminally twisted
Puny little villain
Exercised your claws and sprang from the aquarium
No, I can't see good

Still...

The Lemonheads - "Bit Part" I want a bit part in your life,
A walk-on would be fine.
