lyrics

I trust you
Though all you do is lie
I trust you
Unlikely as you are
I trust you
Because I love you
And everything you say is real

You saw angels
Not once but every night
Only child in lonely Utah caught living with your mom
They would drift in from the desert or blow in off the hills
You would watch them from your window
Just waiting at the gate
Preening their desert wings

After months of visitation
One drifted through that gate
Left your mother in the kitchen wide awake
Stood brutal in your doorframe
Sat softly at your bedside
Touched your hollow thigh

You changed your name to kill that place
You changed your name to exorcise your body

Time moves mercifully
I will meet you in the city
You are my friend
I can see you everyday
And never turn on you completely

Let you come in my room
Let you touch on my thigh
Let you say all my names
At least, we were friends
And everything we felt was real

Pink supreme
What a hopeless dose of memory
Pink supreme
I guess it’s my dream
To be loved like I was by you
To be touched like I was by you
To be changed like I was by you
