INTRO

mon mari, une fille qui aime chanter a minuit.
en appelant la lune, c’est l’ocean qu’elle séduit.
c’est un fille qui ne veut pas penser a toi.
mais se noie dans ses pensées, je le sais parce qu’elle est moi.
(my husband, a girl who likes to sing at midnight
calling to the moon, it’s the ocean she seduces
she is a girl who doesn’t want to think of you
but drowns in thought. I know because she is me.)

thinking bout tip and biggie smalls
someone said hey, you got a grammy at all?

bipolar objective
chorus
now i’m down on the earth
where the ghosts know my worth
got no change in my purse

i may be crazy honey, but no one can snatch me
eyes on the prize baby, beggin’ for more
open up the door
so calm down

everybody calm down
nighttime and i feel so low
even your love couldn’t change my flow
baby get away from me if you must know
i’m queen of the dark and i’m ready to blow
chorus
{because i’m} right
and when it all comes down to paralyze
in a perfect world how we fantasize
that a mother’s tears can rectify lives
its the dark knight that’s got soul that flies

i'm treading water, flipping to grip,
sinking in the waves, but too slick to quit.

knew i was done, knew i was bit

we swim in the dark, til he’s tearin’ me apart
hmm hmm
i am hearty, i am wild
keep my teeth locked in a smile,
it never goes out of style,
like a sweet art deco tile
diving 20,000 leagues
even when my heart fatigues
not a tease, baby please
don’t keep me waiting’, geez.
echolocation
your sound, baby it’s nascent
i got fears but i face em
you’re one but i’m not wastin’
time just thinking about you
it was true when i found you,
the one i want to be bound to
(like a remora)
yo, this place is uncharted territory,
i’ll just be swimmin’ til the day i claim the glory
this open ocean, this ocean wet
i’m ready for a dive i’ll never forget
do you know how i feel?
or are you just looking for a tasty meal
chorus
you are my philosophy
you are my water deep
you are my deepest sleep
you are my coral reef

eye of irene
03:12

|
he’s the one i dream about at night
all over me like sunlight
and i know that it didn’t feel right
he’s dangerous, but not quite
let us climb the trees,
let us claim the breeze,
and we can make it our own
not alone, not alone
we were strangers
can we have love?
only if you show it to me please
eye of irene
won’t u show it to me please
don’t you know i’m falling from the sky
as i fall for him no matter what i try
must be inescapable
the lighting’s just not favorable
with my cards lying here upon the table
so i gotta stick to me
and hope the sun will set me free
eye of irene
the storm will pass
but i still got my looking glass
by myself i got such class—
eye of irene
let a girl dream
babe i need it i can’t lie
cause there’s a tear drop in this eye
every time you pass me by
eye, eye, eye, eye
eye of irene
let a girl dream
