about

The term "love object" is a reference to Laurie Penny's book 'Unspeakable Things.'

lyrics

She speaks in colours, brimming
shifting and turning with the light
And I am emptied out,
betrayed by my lust.

I can feel him eyeing off my crawl space,
what a safe place to occupy.
So I guess here’s the next one,
already can’t be undone.

When a love object
objects
does she make a sound?

Keep the storm at bay,
that’s his solution.
Pushes my doubts away,
because he can see the ocean.

I remember my mind’s eye cried
“don’t throw me a wave I can’t ride,"
he put his head in the sand.

When you dig your way out,
will you recognise me?
I can’t confirm
what shape I will be

You want me like affirmation
I love you like a child
Oh yes – here’s the next one,
So glad he can’t be undone.

Keep the storm at bay,
that’s his solution
I push my doubts away
because we could be the ocean

Oh my naked, giving thing
your intensity shakes me.
I put my head in the sand.

Oh my soul’s beau
Look at me,
Promise I am not an end
and you are not a means
I thought we could both have wings.

Inamorato
Eyes so deep
promise I am not an end
and you are not a means
I thought we could both have wings.

When a love object
objects
does he make a sound?

Keep the storm at bay,
That’s the solution
I push my doubts away
because we are the ocean

But I told you I didn’t want to be
The good wife : A red light
How could you ask that of me?


I am not resolution.
