A molasses summer

You Follow me home because I’m scared of strangers I know what’s looming behind me I know you carry a knife in your pocket But it’s ok only mysteries scare me You Drown me in a bath Than lay me out in the sun to dry In the drip dried summer that sank Like a glass ball in a jar of molasses You Swim in a sea of my blood Cause It’s the same as loving me Don’t think Just take it I wade by the shore and don’t go where I can’t touch You knock my heart on granite Its an egg you will to crack
