From the recording The Unending Alteration of the Human Heart
Lyrics
words and music by Gabrielle Louise
Read me!
I’m a marquee
shining over head
Guard dog
with a yard sign
written in red
I don’t mean to
alarm you
but don’t touch me
Bike chain
on a highway
speeding underfoot
Blue flame
a fan blade
hope I’m understood
I don’t want to
have to harm you
so don’t touch me
No one could blame me
it’s easy to see how I’d feel this way
but don’t try to save me
man I don’t want to be saved!
Read me!
I’m a marquee
singing overhead
Good lord
I’m a billboard
heed what I’ve said
I don’t need to
mislead you
so don’t touch me
