Fingernails

from Silver Daughter by Louise Page

lyrics

I'll remember the shapes of your fingernails
Because i love to play with hands
I'll write a sonata on the shores of your thighs
I'll write love notes in your soft sands
With my
Fingernails
Fingernails
my fingernails
my fingernails

I remember the shape of their denial
None of them dared to cut open their heart for me
None of them cared to sharpen a knife for me
my heart was aching so i plucked it out and now
I’ve got blood under my
Fingernails

Fingernails
Fingernails
Fingernails

'a wild woman hypocrite who's afraid of wild things
If i set you free do you promise you'll return to me?
I won’t ask about the dirt under your nails if you don’t ask about the blood under mine
(I won’t ask about the dirt on your mind if you don’t ask about the blood clouding mine)

Chorus:
Give me a hand
Be it help or applause
Cause i thrive on praise
Cause i constantly fall
And I’ll hold it close and ill kiss the beds of your
Fingernails
Fingernails
Fingernails
