[00:00.00]Life In Drag - The Hotelier
[00:01.32]I tried to keep a steady hand
[00:03.73]Tumble blocks
[00:05.29]Start again
[00:06.85]I held your side when you let go
[00:09.55]And you came back well rehearsed
[00:11.14]In holding-your-own
[00:12.45]A broken seal
[00:13.58]A past self known
[00:15.18]Retrieve my heart from the Alamo
[00:17.96]I need it here to touch your skin
[00:20.87]Reconfigure
[00:22.19]Deconstruct
[00:23.01]And begin
[00:23.83]The centers shrunk between your eyes
[00:26.39]Sharper Corners Broader Sides
[00:29.29]And I felt weak
[00:30.47]In woman's wear
[00:32.10]Genderf**ked dilated stuck holding a stare
[00:35.04]You taught me how to guard myself
[00:37.89]To keep my heart unscathed
[00:40.55]In health
[00:41.03]I think you got carried away
[00:43.39]Reached out your hand
[00:44.78]It carried you
[00:45.83]Away
[00:50.41]Well it's life in drag
[00:55.47]Well it's life in drag
[00:56.56]You wore an armor that covered your face
[01:00.61]It's life in drag
[01:01.47]I wore hands high to show truce and embracing
[01:05.41]It's life in drag
[01:17.82]Who taught you how to hate yourself
[01:20.63]Who forced you to confide in spell
[01:23.42]I mistook pathetic for empathy
[01:26.15]Cast a stone at the foe
[01:27.74]And the stone hit me
[01:29.01]I held your hand in ritual to show disarming
[01:34.79]While you were a weapon inside yourself
[01:37.78]Inside your body
[01:41.16]I can't pretend
[01:42.47]I can't concealed my apprehension
[01:45.40]While pressed against the callous of your palm
[01:48.01]I reconciled
[01:49.57]Because you couldn't feel me there
[02:03.09]You wore binary like a badge of armor
[02:08.70]While I struggled dealing
[02:10.68]With the loss of yet another
