ST. VINCENT/ANNIE CLARK (III)



You're a supplement, you're a salve
You're a bandage, pull it off
I can quit you cut it out
You're a patient, I am love

You're a cast on looking on
You're an actor out of work
You're a liar and that's the truth
You're an extra, lost in the scene

You're a boxer in the ring
With brass knuckles underneath
You're the curses through my teeth
You're the laughter, you're the obscene

You're a supplement, you're a salve
You're a bandage, pull it off
I think I love you, I think I'm mad

You're a cast on looking on
You're an actor out of work
I think I love you, I think I'm mad
You're a boxer in the ring
With brass knuckles underneath
I think I love you, I think I'm mad
