Lemon Juice

Jessica Harper

Lyrics 

The green tea on her lips
Mixes lemon juice and cinnamon
Her bittersweet kiss
Leaves mint fresh on my tongue

Her frictionless stride
Insists she’ll relieve my unease
But she’s the gap in my mind
That I will never see

And she knows she can have anything she wants
Cuz she’s got all of that, not afraid to flaunt
She sees my bones shake and thinks she’s gonna win

She says I won’t succeed
Without the burn of vinegar
Yet I still don’t see
Why my throat always hurts

The bite in her smile
Entices my mind helplessly
She is my one desire
But she will never please

And she knows she can have anything she wants
Cuz she’s got all of that, not afraid to flaunt
She sees my bones shake but I won’t let her win
