[Verse 1]
Mama died and I was moonless in a Stygian tide
It was rude, I was lonesome, I know
In mode-survive, I chose to squint as if I bit a lime
Disposed of wisdom like a goldfish, oh, no

[Pre-Chorus]
Trying to hide the ripening tumor
Breathing fire
Love, but a rumor

[Chorus]
There's a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life
What a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life

[Verse 2]
I hadn't held you close at such a time
I was preoccupied and oafish, my love slowed
Had me believing I would never find
Cooed at the first hint of affection, I moaned
Hedonistic bouts of fuckery
Running circles virtuosic
A pet malignant growing in the wreckage
[Pre-Chorus]
Trying to hide the ripening tumor
Breathing fire
Love, but a rumor

[Chorus]
There's a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life
There's a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life
There's a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life
There's a woman in my sky
Seventeen when I learned to cry
I don't know, she had to ride
Pick a straw, dance for your life
