Every single night I endure the flight
Of little wings of white flame butterflies in my brain

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 1h

The answer's always been in
Clear view
But even when the window's clean
I still can't see for the fact

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 2h

And you've early closed your curtains
I'll wait by the backstage door
While you try to find the lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 3h

Oh, your gaze is dangerous
And you fill your space so sweet

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 4h

You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 5h

And when it counts you recoil with a cryptic word
And leave a love belittled
Oh what a cold and
Common old way to go

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 6h

I was staring out the window

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 7h

And I must decide, if you must deride
That I’m much obliged to up and go
I’ll idealize, then realize that it’s no sacrifice
Because the price is paid, and there’s nothing left to grieve

And pry it open, hoping for an encore
And if it gets too late for me to wait
For you to find you love me, and tell me so
It's ok, don't need to say it

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 9h

But as it came down near, so did a weary tear

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 10h

You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn't quite discern me

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 11h

Courteous to try and help, but let me set your mind at ease
If there was a better way to go then it would find me

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 12h

I could swallow the seas to wash down all this pride

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 13h

So for the time being, I'm being patient
And amidst this bitterness
If you'll just consider this, even if it don't make sense
All the time — give it time

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 14h

I let the beast in and then
I even tried forgiving him but it's too soon
So I'll fight again, again, again, again, again

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 15h

I say to myself
I need fuel to take flight

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 16h

I can't tell what I'm looking through

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 17h

Come on, put a little love here in my void"
He said, "It's all in your head," and I said, "So's everything," but he didn't get it
I thought he was a man but he was just a little boy
Hunger hurts

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 18h

You'll never hear the message I give

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 19h

So if you catch me trying to
Find my way into your heart

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 20h

I’m sitting singing again, singing again, singing again
Sing, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this if he won’t get with this?
Am I gonna heal from this? He won’t admit to it

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 21h

Because he's all I ever knew of love

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 22h

What could I do, but spend my best
O' sailor, why'd you do it
What'd you do that for

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 23h

Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory
But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 1d

Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
But most of the time, it does
And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift
