June Henry - Bike thief

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1076709
Verse 1
When does person
Become body?
Is it instant?
Not always

You used every spice in the cabinet
On a box of mac n' cheese
It tasted too much like garlic
I didn't really like it
Now it's all I wanna eat
And there's a space out there in the garden
You planted last summer
Digging on your hands and knees

The perennials all came back stronger
But people aren't like flowers
We're so fragile we're so weak

Verse 2
Whеn does past tense
Bеcome correct?
I guess it's instant
But I don't like that

'Cause in my brain
I'm still just a bike thief
I feel the wind
Like kisses on my face

I guess it wasn't really yours
To begin with
Paying for borrowed time
On borrowed futon and borrowed space

And I hope that you sort of liked the tattoo
I never think of them as fully permanent
But if you die when they're still on you
There's not a laser on this Earth that can remove it
And I hope you know I wasn't angry
You could've lied with the vodka on your breath
A billion more times and I'd still love you
Like a brother
God I'm gonna miss you, friend
