Ariel Martinez Poet Lyric

Chaperons and Constellations

so we found refuge beneath a tree
you held my arm and wouldn't let go
i won't let you go
you're not even mine 
you left me to be his
i'm sorry i couldn't be him
but i'd rather go chasing someone else
then waste my time on something that's not mine

i'd do anything 'cause you loved me
i shouldn't run 'cause i know you never did
but you'd chase years on forever for him
and now i can care less about what you did

the lies from the cauldron just topple on top of you
which excuse do you use now?
i wish i were him and do the things we never did
experience watching the stars over our heads
or cuddle with you by your bed
and admit something i never said

the shape of the moon is helping
the way you're smiling
but i can care less because you never loved me
i'm tied around my neck with a chain
i'd rather be caught stabbed then be your slave again
but you'd rather see me stabbed
but what do i care, i'm only dreaming

so we found refuge beneath a tree
you held my arm and i wouldn't let go
i will let go of you
i won't look back at that place
but who would know?
