Centerfold
2013
"Sitting in a centerfold
I've never felt so old
From here I can see everything that
lives inside your world
I can watch your eyes from here
I can almost taste your mouth
It's not as if I'm bitter you can -
have me any time, I'm -
​
Waiting on a tired rack
begging for your small change
Lying on your broke-in couch
loving you right back
Whoever thought a photograph could
have so many thoughts?...
​
I will be your platinum
up from your high gold
I am yours forever to -
love and to behold
​
Finger the pages slowly
swelling up inside
I know you know that you can
Fuck me any time -
​
You can touch my parts from there
just sitting in your chair
Lying on your broke-in couch
waiting in such despair
​
Whoever thought a photograph
could answer such longing
Whoever thought a photograph
could answer such longing
​
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
​
You can touch my parts from there
Just sitting in your chair
Lying on your broke-in couch
Waiting in such despair
Whoever thought a photograph
could have so many thoughts
Whoever thought a photograph
could answer such longing
​
I'm feeling old from this centerfold -
and there's no one to think of me
I'm feeling old from this centerfold -
and there's no one to think of me."
I'm feeling old from this centerfold -
and there's no one to think of me
I'm feeling old from this centerfold -
and there's no one to think of me."
