Care of Me - Morning Glory

I graduated at aim

Though I wouldn’t say too soon

I left feeling stupider

For having learned the time

I couldn’t believe that grown-ups could

Believe so many lies

Certainly I would not become

Privy to the wise

But now I’m my own anathema

Second with no reprieve

Won’t ya fix me please

Off of my disease

And baby please take care of me

I’m a wreck as you can see

I’ll be sleeping right here at your door

Till you throw me down the key

Assuagement of my angers

Resentments I protect

Harbor now like vanities

And lovers I reject

Assuagement of my judgements

And feelings I project

Are only things I see in me

I fail to inspect

Lay my head upon your chest

So I may hear your heart

Shut off from a rapacious god

Who’s indebted me for thirst

I’m beaten too, I surrendered all

I lose, you always win

Bloody on your stoop

Please let me in

And baby please take care of me

I’m a wreck as you can see

I’ll do anything you ask of me

If you just would hold me
