in case you ever wear a dress keep in mind, it's so much stress sit up straight it's so pertinent it can't be shallow we swim in it pearls just like an umbilical cord glassy-eyed and oh so bored wave your hands born on a cusp of death and life and love and lust if i fall before i wake i pray my soul to be so fake i crash my bones upon the ground i scream it doesn't make a sound through my pretty eyes i see a face i can't find its reason or its place lipstick burns and cracks a smile makeup it wears for quite a while skinny arms they splinter when broken a girl's good looks a good luck token a bruise becomes an eye so blue i put myself together with waterproof glue now i can cry my whole life long i can fall apart and still look strong but next time you put on my dress remember boy, it's all distressed you don't want to be a girl just dress like 1 well my love it's funny, but it's not any fun there's nothing good in our world baby don't ever dress like a girl ------------------ "Come night, come darkness, for you cannot come too soon or stay too long in such a place as this."
