Noise Across the Shower Walls

You say we dangle on a scene
When i want to screw you obscene

You whip your hair and spread fire
I want to toss our love on the pyre

Midnight scrambling, you call me from the bathtub
Chanting my name across the window frame

You're long term boyfriend hates me insane
Honestly, I want to remove him from the game

Put you on the floor and make you shout
Violent eruptions and put it away

He abused you and still you return
Practicing formal boundaries to keep it clean

How long do we have to flee?
All these insinuations are suckling to me

While you walk the white lines
Proving you can make your choice
But every time you fill my invoice
We're getting closer to our sacred noise
