Posies
Compliment

Well I've felt worse and I have felt
better than this
I've made a pacifier
Out of my fist

Well I don't care when bones are bare
The mind can't interfere
And what I've said outside my head
Anyone can hear

Maybe I praise you 'cause I cannot praise myself
Won't you just take
A compliment from me?

Perhaps they're understated
And a little overmasked
If they were hand delivered
It would be more than I could ask

Forwardness ain't my business
But you can fish for compliments
While I beg for forgiveness

I'd like to reap the flatteries I sow
But I really cast seeds of doubt
Looks like you take them from everyone
And everyone hands them out

Self mutilation just ain't my trip
But now this is worth the trouble
Cut me open with your laughter
I bleed complementary colors

Tender seedlings trampled
And overwatered boughs
Won't you just take
A compliment from me?

Perhaps they're overstated
And a little undermasked
If they were what I really meant
It would be more than I could ask

Forwardness should be my business
But you can fish for compliments
While I beg for forgiveness

Well I have tried every approach
And they always leave me empty
But each one has it's special way
Of making everyone contempt me

It seems rather selfish to want to be loved
Or to love and expect you to care
But my batteries don't run on flattery
And it just gets me nowhere

Oh when was I ever promised
I'd get back all that I gave?
But I wouldn't care if you'd take
A compliment from me

Perhaps it's too late
Or too much to expect
But compliments that come no strings attached
Well, they're certainly the best
Thing for me, I adore you
But you can fish for compliments
And I won't be there to bore you



Mirror lyrics:


And I won't be there to bore you
But you can fish for compliments
Thing for me, I adore you
Well, they're certainly the best
But compliments that come no strings attached
Or too much to expect
Perhaps it's too late

A compliment from me
But I wouldn't care if you'd take
I'd get back all that I gave?
Oh when was I ever promised

And it just gets me nowhere
But my batteries don't run on flattery
Or to love and expect you to care
It seems rather selfish to want to be loved

Of making everyone contempt me
But each one has it's special way
And they always leave me empty
Well I have tried every approach

While I beg for forgiveness
But you can fish for compliments
Forwardness should be my business

It would be more than I could ask
If they were what I really meant
And a little undermasked
Perhaps they're overstated

A compliment from me?
Won't you just take
And overwatered boughs
Tender seedlings trampled

I bleed complementary colors
Cut me open with your laughter
But now this is worth the trouble
Self mutilation just ain't my trip

And everyone hands them out
Looks like you take them from everyone
But I really cast seeds of doubt
I'd like to reap the flatteries I sow

While I beg for forgiveness
But you can fish for compliments
Forwardness ain't my business

It would be more than I could ask
If they were hand delivered
And a little overmasked
Perhaps they're understated

A compliment from me?
Won't you just take
Maybe I praise you 'cause I cannot praise myself

Anyone can hear
And what I've said outside my head
The mind can't interfere
Well I don't care when bones are bare

Out of my fist
I've made a pacifier
better than this
Well I've felt worse and I have felt

all the money or the simple life honey

silence is a scary sound

no more you

an island

you losin' out

cage the songbird

love don't care (whose heart it breaks)

teenage symphony

mon age et l'heure qu'il est

et puis...

color me blue
