192.365 :: She's Lucky I Didn't Slip Her a Smile

A genuine smile. Somewhere along yesterday's evening, I started to just believe again that things will be alright. And today, I truly believed that. I listened to feel good music at work, we had cinco de mayo celebrations at work, and no matter the little things that popped up, a-fuckin'-gain, I didn't let it shake me. B/c sort of like this song, I'll do what I gotta do, when I have to, if I have to, but really until then, I'll be ok. Things will be ok.

 

I took a knife and cut out her eye

I took it home and watched it wither and die

Well, she's lucky that I didn't slip her a smile

That's why she sleeps with one eye open

That's the price she paid

 

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

I'll cut your little heart out cause you made me cry

 

I slipped my hand under her skirt

I said don't worry, it's not gonna hurt

Oh, my reputation's kinda clouded with dirt

That's why you sleep with one eye open

That's the price you paid

~Girl With One Eye by Florence And The Machine
