this isnt love
this is a wolf dressed up
your car got crushed
i guess it’s time to fess up
i've been
crying on the telephone
everyday that i’m alone
taking pictures, cut my hair
ignite something that once was there
stare into your eyes to find
a you that you long left behind
adoration, reciprocation
a semblance of communication
that i'm the one you want
this isn't love
i think it's good enough
red takes the bus
because her car got crushed
its just i
burnt my fingers on the wand
casting charms for when your gone
doomsday prepper, bad accepter
abandonment issue neglecter
empty bathtub, water plants
ignore the big important facts
lists were always your thing, huh?
you take from all the ones you love
i swore i wouldn't cry today
i break that swear most everyday
but you broke yours, no nevermind
guess you got that one thing right
and you said you’d always change
and you change
this isn’t love
this is a wolf dressed up

i was oh so bummed
when i figured out
you only ever loved me
on the last day of the month
curled up on the ground
in a room without a house
i’m like a springtime bunny
like a drawer without a blouse
i know men
i know men
i could not believe
i could not rehearse
you only ever loved me
the first time i was yours
deep in urbana
sitting on the curb
you only ever fucked me
when i said i wasn’t yours
i know men
i know men
and he said
“this is not a joke”
“you’ve gotta let go”
“you’re no fan of mine”
“quit wasting my time”

Venus hurts in the sidelines
press her toe in my soft side
she puts my heart in my bladder
she puts my heart in my bladder
and I can't explain how you hurt
how you hurt in my brain
Venus cries in the sidelines
chew tapioca, avoid eyes
bite my nails 'til I feel right
she bites my cheeks 'til I turn bright
you peel the orange and throw the rind
you look good in this blue light
you throw glances beside mine
you brush my side and it feels nice
and I can't explain how you hurt
how you hurt in my brain
and I can't contain
I don't wanna wait around for you
and I can't tell you how much I have grown for you
I'll take you to the show if you let me to
Please don’t let me go back in my bed again
(Please don’t go)

I saw them play last week. They reminded me of the band Sarge. I dunno if this was before or after I learned they were both from Champaign.
