lyrics

How can you love me when I am like a child?
How can you love me when I'm an empty shell?
How can you love me when I am out of control?
When my head spins so fast
and I fall to the floor

When I don't remember
Starts and finishes
When I don't remember
Movements
When I let my sadness and fear consume me
When I can't form a coherent sentence

I know all of these things and I propagate them
Rolling out my emotions like so many ribbons
Plucking them out of my mouth
One by one
My hands groping
constantly groping
for the cause

I'm tired
I'm tired
I force myself into wakefulness
I'm tired
I'm tired
My dreams make me nervous

All I want and all I need is love
but how can you love me when I do not
love myself?

Kittiwake

Kittiwakes are coastal breeding birds ranging in the North Pacific, North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. The black-legged kittiwake is often known simply as kittiwake. The name is derived from the birds call, a song 'kittee-wa-ake, kittee-wa-ake'. Colonies can be found throughout the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands to southeast Alaska. In the winter, the range extends further south and out to sea. ... more
