[Verse 1]
Eugene keeps split fruit and stars between his ribs
Smoking loose blems, blending, worming his way into your heart
And what a heart! So soft, sometimes it hurts to beat
We've known each other for ages
The first time you came over, you grated ginger into a bowl
Listened to my oldest pain
Spoke like sugar water
I knew I loved you then
I'm still not quite sure in what way
[Verse 2]
Eugene bloomed, like a complicated flower, or an elegant lie
You borrowed his habit of horrible charm and effortless bruising
Everybody says you two look beautiful together
His hair smells like spoiled peaches and boiled blood
I wear jealousy so unglamorously
It upsets my stomach
I see double
Forgetting myself in the night
For a minute, I was everything you needed
We would drive for miles in search of clean air
Our eyes were blind to the future
Your future
With him
Who could have predicted the agony?
