[o-lo-lo]

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

margaret arrayed the rocks around the hull before
it was sinking, a million stones, a million bones,
a million holes within the chinking.

and painting rings around your eyes these peppered
holes so filled with crying. a whisper weighed
upon the tattered down where you and i were lying.

tell me now, tell me this, a forest's son, a
river's daughter, a willow on the willow wisp, our
ghosts will wander all of the water.

so let's be married here today these rushing waves
to bare our witness, and we will lye like river
stones rolling only where it takes us.

but i pulled you and i called you here, and i
caught you and i brought you here these hazards of
love, never more will trouble us.

oh margaret the lapping waves are licking quietly
at our ankles another bow another breath this
brilliant chill's come for the shackle.

with this long last rush of air we speak our vows
and sorry whispers, when the waves came crashing
down, he closed his eyes and softly kissed her.

but i pulled you and i called you here
and i caught you and i brought you here
these hazards of love
never more will trouble us
and these hazards of love
never more will trouble us.
