Hello from Eau Claire

Xiu Xiu


i know it's dumb to say
that you are on my mind
i know it's stupid to dream
that you might think of me as a man

i can loose my own tie knot
i can button up my own pants
i can buy my own cigarettes
i can pluck my own moustache

i read it's lame to wish
that you won't walk out on me
but i'm not embarassed to sing
plainly the words 'love' and your name

i can pay all my own bills
i can unroll my own tights
i can untuck all i have to untuck
i can weep through my own midnights

i can loose my own tie knot
i can button up my own pants
i can buy my own cigarettes
i can pluck my own moustache

i can pay all my own debts
i can rip off my own tights
i can humiliate myself to your face
i can weep through my own midnights
