Your Love Is Mine

[Teratogen]

Your Love Is Mine

Put your hand in a deep, dark hole, babe
You took a walk off the chipped-off sidewalk
I found my fortune lying in a pile of coal, babe
We sat down together and began to talk
I told you, "Don't say nothin' you wouldn't regret."
You said, "I don't know nothin', so don't make a bet."
We had no order, no, we had no self-doubt
We fell together, moving inside and out

Of all the gutters that you knew were around
Your mother never told you nothing profound
Wish for an apple, babe, or maybe a sign
Like something you knew was about to resign
Like something you knew was about to unwind
I told you never to think like there was any other time
Just hold my hand and tell me your love is mine
I want you, babe, but I'm too hard to find

Well, windows open and windows get shut
Never liken me to the doors and their hinges
I grabbed the winds and rode down the street, but
Don't ever let me hate my soul-searching binges
Cut it open, with your sex holding the knife
Reach down inside, babe, make me your wife
The insides are smooth, and the insides are wet
My guts are perfect, babe, what else is there to get?

Every hour I hear something so new
On all the cell-phone dribble, who am I talking to?
I know the morning seems so lonely in the sun
Like all your voices when the night has begun
Like all your voices when you're watching everyone
Don't let them know that your mind is a gun
'Cause you could kill them while just having fun
Thinking how much you love me when this whole deal is done

Of all the gutters you knew were around
Your father never told you nothing profound
Wish for some peace, babe, or maybe a sign
Like something you knew was about to go blind
Like something you knew was about to unwind
I told you, never to think like there was any other time
Just hold my hand and tell me your love is mine
Just hold my hand and tell me your love is mine.
