Acrobat
By Angel Olsen
You are a crazy acrobat
You are the witch, I am your cat
I want to be a bit like you
I hope you don't mind
If I do.
I love the way your body's made
I love the way your voice is sex
To be the whisper upon your ear
I want to be the bed you miss.
I am alive
I am alive
I thought
I thought that I'd died.
Who cares I'm not a moralist
I'm just a lady with some time
I want to be made out of love
I want to be made into light.
I love the way you take a walk
and all the things that you see with your eyes
Oh, to be that distant thought,
some growing meaning in your mind.
I am alive
I am alive
I thought that I'd died
I thought that I'd died
