Caramia Lyrics by Indigo Girls

Caramia Lyrics

    Caramia
    Blank notebook and a back pocket fade
    You used to mock me
    Sometimes i would cry
    When i was home later
    Cause you hurt my feelings
    Why why why
    (why why why)
    You said write it down in your notebook
    My wanna be harriet the spy
    And some say your genius
    (genius)
    Is in your madness
    (madness)
    Will you get better
    (will you get better)
    And then will you leave us
    (will you leave us)

    How you mixed with the darkness
    At such a young age
    (until in your chemistry)
    Until in your chemistry
    (silence and violence)
    Silence and violence
    (silence and violence)
    Turned silence to rage
    (turned silence to rage)
    Ah

    Why are dreaming this
    One shoe off
    And a bridge to cross over
    And where is your taxi fare
    Are you left by yourself
    Or left by your lover
    (are you left by your lover)
    For three nights straight now
    I dream i kept both of my shoes
    But i've forgotten my lines
    And i've misplaced my cues
    And there's a sea full of faces
    And a show to go on
    But i'm struck mute at entrance
    With nothing to draw from

    There were the secrets
    The big bang and the bigger joke
    You seem to know all of them
    That's why injustice makes you red with choke
    Yeah but you love like you're desperate
    You don't know what love is
    (if there was one thing)
    And i thought if there was one thing i could give you
    One thing i could give you
    (if there was one thing)
    Well maybe it was this
    The head on the bed board
    (sadness)
    The anguished repeat
    (sadness)
    The sweat of our sadness
    (sweat of our sadness)
    And the twist of the sheets
    (twist of the sheets)
    I don't want whats best for you
    Where will i be when you've found it
    (where will i where will i)
    You know i pray a lot about these bad feelings inside
    (where will i where will i be)
    I can't pray my way through or around it

    Hey
    Why are dreaming this
    One shoe off
    And a bridge to cross over
    (and a bridge to cross over)
    And where is your taxi fare
    Are you left by yourself
    (are you left)
    Or left by your lover
    (by yourself)
    For three nights straight now
    (left by your lover)
    You know i keep both of my shoes
    (i've got bad feelings inside)
    But i've forgotten my lines
    (i can't pray through)
    I've misplaced my cues
    (i can't pray my way around it)
    And there's a sea full of faces
    And a show to go on
    I'm struck mute at entrance
    With nothing to draw from

    Nothing to draw from
