feed me some dessert

Pearls of the southern skies
I read it back to front
Wanted to be an astronaut
Find out why the stars don't fly around like doves

So I reached into my pocket
I pulled out a ball of lint
Threw it in the river
And I watched it slowly sink

Now I'm knee-deep
I saw the colour leave your cheeks
Are you breathing?
Can you feel the blood rush to your feet?

Can you see me?
I'm caught up in the wind
The salty sea breeze
I'm dancing in the leaves

But I'm hungry
I'm starving
'cause all you feed me
Is lies
I see it in your eyes I see it in my

Stomach
It's empty
'cause all you feed me
Is words
And all your words just seem to hurt

I'm hungry feed me some dessert
I'm hungry feed me some dessert

There's pigeons homing in my galaxies
I watch them circle slowly
They come so close I see their beady eyes
You'd think that they would know me

They're caught up in my orbit
And I'm caught up in their stare
In the moonlight they surround me
Bring the auburn to my hair

And I'm knee deep
I saw the colour leave your cheeks
Are you breathing?
Can you feel the blood rush to your feet?

Can you see me?
I'm caught up in the wind
The salty sea breeze
I'm dancing in the leaves

But I'm hungry
I'm starving
'cause all you feed me
Is lies
I see it in your eyes I see it in my

Stomach
It's empty
'cause all you feed me
Is words
And all your words just seem to hurt

I'm hungry feed me some dessert
I'm hungry feed me some dessert
I'm hungry feed me some dessert
I'm hungry feed me some dessert
