lyrics

Stealing a cat, we were taking it back up to our home
We take down the signs and get rid of the flies so he can be ours
Everyone's laughing at my sister's cat-snatching down the road
They list the reasons he has no home
With legs in the air, I can feel it somewhere on the side of my tongue

Something is cracking, and I start backing up to my door
And the slit in the curtain is how I am certain of what I'll become
My daddy hates him, so we forsake him to a barn
Tiggy is passing from this thing to that thing quietly
He hides in the flowers and waits there for hours where he can't be seen

Watching her go to school, and she's breaking the rules, and that she should
Her favorite cartoons playing water balloons with your old blood
with your old blood
with your old blood
with your old blood

Thirteen ago
San Francisco
My neighbor, Hector, left his lover
For coating lectures in fancy textures
No one realized he was cross-tied

I admit I'm out of line
Can't control what I say or do to you
Said you were insecure
As if one word could turn all you did
To nothing
