lyrics

You make me wish my heart were black like yours
Black as a moonless night in pouring rain
Black as the deepest of the ocean’s depths
I always knew that you would bring me pain

But my heart’s open as a summer’s breeze
I have my youth and my stupidity
I wouldn’t trade them for the very world,
And yet for you I would trade anything

Oh it doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense
No it doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense

You make me wish my heart were black like yours
So I might come to be some match for you
You lie with pleasure and I lap it up
But I’m not stupid oh I see through you

You treat me mean when you don’t like yourself
You know I don’t deserve those lies you tell
And still I let you call yourself my man
I wanna leave but I don’t think I can

Oh it doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense
Why I love you so much, you know it doesn’t make sense
Oh I stay and I stay, and it doesn’t make sense
And I let you get away with it, it doesn’t make sense

It’s a paradoxical sentiment also evident in her artistic sensibilities. In her upcoming debut, Language and Mirrors, she fluidly, and authentically, inhabits earthy Americana and majestic orchestral rock. ... more
