Civilian Songtext
von Wye Oak
Civilian Songtext
I am nothin′ without pretend I know my thoughts
Can't live with them
I am nothin′ without a man
I know my faults, but I can't hide them
I still keep my baby teeth
In the bedside table with my jewelry
You still sleep in the bed with me
My jewelry and my baby teeth
I don't need another friend
When most of them I can barely keep up with
Them perfectly able to hold my own hand
But I still can′t kiss my own neck
I wanted to give you everything
But I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother′s, mother's, mother′s did

Can't live with them
I am nothin′ without a man
I know my faults, but I can't hide them
I still keep my baby teeth
In the bedside table with my jewelry
You still sleep in the bed with me
My jewelry and my baby teeth
I don't need another friend
When most of them I can barely keep up with
Them perfectly able to hold my own hand
But I still can′t kiss my own neck
I wanted to give you everything
But I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother′s, mother's, mother′s did
Civilian
