lie to me
tell me what I want to hear
when you call
I'll be waiting on a breeze
to blow us out to sea
and I'll say
I'm gunning after you
with every step I take
away from all I know
to be true
come to me
with your hat and children's diary in your hands
and I'll go
fall into the stranger's clumsy hold
but you know
I'm gunning after you
over the windowsill
taking careful aim
it's not something I planned
wait underneath the stars
deadened leaves falling into the car
everybody knows we're here
the western edge of town
cold vinyl on our skin
feet tucked under us rocking
waves and birds that call
a distant kind of sound
shift around there on your seat
the mist clouds windows and the windscreen
you can't look back at all
the night swallowed the road
listen
can you keep a secret?
keep it down
no one has to know
a trans-Atlantic phone call
afraid of interception
slipping between words
and floating weightless above a dark ocean
I'm not sure what we're doing
I'm not comfortable
her face looks different in his mind
listening to the recording
he pictures her eyes half closed
lips moving mumbling quivering shivering and dreaming
dreaming of dark forests she remembers in her bones
pursued by dark-haired creatures some slick and beautiful
she smells him in the trees
the pools of night
a pack
a pack of lies
well he says to the screen
silently
lie to me
lie to me
lie to me
lie
