Please come and find me,
Once all the gawkers depart,
A day of being stared at, laughed at, spit on, catcalled,
And it made me want to lock up my heart
To everyone but you
You look at me the way that people are supposed to
Or that’s how it is in books,
To be honest, there’s not too many people I’m close to
Oh my little landslide, you know I love you even when you fall
And oh I, I want more than this world can provide,
But on our last day,
We’ll catch a glimpse of worlds of color and clay,
With different constellations in the summer sky.
Today a man came
And threw a brick at the stage
The one thing they leave out when they say to be yourself
Is what the hell to do with all of that rage,
So I give it all to you
We turn it into something we can use in your bedroom
And the lions roar
From their pen next door
And I stare up at the ceiling from our canvas on the floor
And maybe there’s a universe much closer than I think
Where I’m allowed to be myself without always feeling like a freak,
but it’s only just a dream,
Just a stupid fucking dream dream I tell you,
Oh my, my lucky cat’s eye
I know you love me even when I fall
And oh I, I’d like the honor of being your bride
And every night
We'll get to dream of worlds of oceans and light
With different constellations in the summer sky.
And when you tell me "my father never wanted me,"
I never know just how to react,
And when you tell me “I’ve been a lot of girls I’m not proud of,"
How many times I gotta tell you I don’t care about your past,
You tell me “I’m dangerous, I’m a runner babe"
I tell you that I’m pretty quick myself,
And when you tell me “I don’t deserve somebody to love me,"
I tell you that I’ll never run away
That I'll never run away
Oh my, my little landslide
You know I love you even when you fall
