The Actor Full Lyrics
The actor lying on the pillow next to me
Through thighs a canyon, and bullets
Below your knees
I know you find it hard to breathe
When flowers bloom at the corner of your street
Dried flat for pleasure, insurance
And hopefully
They get a page inside your book
What could I say to make this right?
Afternoon fuck and then a fight
When everybody's listening
My friends are in the kitchen
Elastic lover you’re holding me so tight
Just like a saviour
Until it doesn't feel too right
I won't forget the way you cried
A damning flight by virtue of a man
And to say father, I hope you’ve got a plan
I've got another one too
What could you say to make this right
Afternoon fuck and then a fight
You knew that I was listening
Your new man in the kitchen
On stage the actor rehearses her new lines
One woman show
“I'll see you at opening night”
And then won't look you in the eye
