Ten Dollars

I don't need to walk down those streets
I don't need them to see me
to see what I do now to make my money
to see how bad I'm doing this week
but I've got to get my ten dollars
across the city for ten dollars
short changed by men in white collars
it wasn't worth it for ten dollars...

we have to watch our feet
there's so much broken glass all over these streets
and it's so hard to be a good dog and leave those bones alone
shacked up and shackled, my ankles to your wrists
or we could trade clothes and go freak out the tourists
we'll be turning heads and they'll be turning us in
for being deviants, artful in every sin
but only on the weekends
we have to watch our speech
we're talking way too loud, I hate when anyone can hear me
we'll make a secret code, practice it all alone
somewhere between thigh-high and neck-deep
I'd stay here all day if you let me
she said, "no one ever hits those licks,
that dexterity is such a rarity, please play that song again for me
and I'll take the heat, I'll be discrete
retrace the lines until you fall asleep
my calendar has stayed the same
don't let me sleep here, don't let me sleep in
I've shed so much skin I thought by now I'd be a different person
completely
I've shed so much skin I thought by now I'd be completely me

I ain't never seen nobody climb a prison wall like that
history pressed against my back, I'll kiss you between your heart attacks
I can't help falling to pieces whenever I hear that song
I heard you sing in the morning while you put your makeup on
and I was yours from then on
I was yours
glassy-eyed and cotton-mouthed
they still haven't figured us out
we're through trying to put these ghosts to rest
so let's break the floorboards beneath the bed and show them that we still exist
she sang Sampson in my head
on that chair you painted red
she ate a slice of Wonderbread and she went right back to bed
I can't believe I'm missing
late night confessing
like when we lived in each others' heads
before we both got new beds
how long have I been missing?
glassy-eyed and cotton-mouthed
I still haven't figured this out
I'm through trying to put you to rest
so let's break the floorboards beneath the bed
let's be honest

I know that you did all you could
I think we just misunderstood
all the time and the work it would take
to bring it up the code in this state
the balding tires and the leaking brakes
the sorry sound that the engine makes
I guess we'll have to find another way
to make that trip out west one day
I climbed out the bottom of the bed
tried not to wake you but I woke you instead
you rolled over, rolled away from the phone
I just wanted you to feel at home
and I don't even know what yours look like now
it kinda makes it easier to walk around
blinders on, keep looking down
the small circles that we swim til we drown
and I think that broken knows what broken needs
for me, a reassurance
for you, a retreat
scaling the scope of our own injuries
your reddened eyes and my bruised knees
hey heavy eyes, it's no surprise that you're gonna be up all night
it's gonna be another long long day, to power through
despite all the lies that you tell yourself I know that you'll be alright
but I hope it gets easier for you
hey heavy eyes, it's no surprise that the sun is up too early
never seems like it's being very fair for you
hey heavy eyes, it's no surprise I know you're struggling to find peace
it's gonna be another long long night for you
I know that you tried all you could
