o'malleable

(i really like these lyrics.
mostly because i feel like these are the most "mine"
that any set of lyrics will ever be.
i can't explain it.)

i am yellow, i am green
i am everything you've never seen
i'm pebbles, i am gold
i am stories told and sold

i am piggy banks and prodigies
and endless days of scabby knees
a crooked crocodile
an easy being to beguile

come on, take me
ooh, make me
anything you want.

i am turtles in a shell
i am going straight to hell
i am rain on sunny days
i am falsely given praise

i am ice cream cones and toffee
i am caramel and coffee
i'm reflections on a lake
i am the laugh that isn't fake

come on, take me
ooh, make me
anything you want.

i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours
i'm wooden chairs and keys to open doors
i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours, i'm yours
i'm sailors on the search for open shores
but mostly i am yours.

pills to help you sleep at night
a wide-awak'ning pillow-fight
i'm a lazy summer's day
i am a feeling in the way

i am not at all if less is more
and everything if more is less
a creaky wooden floor
i am your clear, decisive yes

come on, take me
ooh, make me
anything you want.

come on, take me
ooh, make me
anything you want.
