A Cherry On The Grave

Haven't you noticed my emotional needs
Have gone untended for too long
I need release
I need you to hear me
You didn't know
But you should have known
You didn't know
I've been pulled away
to something not the same
will you share my shame?
Ashanthi said to say:
"The pain will sprout someday,
like a cherry on a grave"
It's been known as hero worship
and many other names
Ooooo
A cherry on the grave
Emotion stripped away
My heart is a blank space
I can't feel anything
Ashanthi said to say:
"You are not to blame"
I will share your shame.
It's been known as hero worship
and many other names
an infatuation with one who's perfect
a cherry on the grave
a cherry on the grave
a cherry on the grave
a cherry on the grave

they needed to be together again

When looking for a meaningful connection
It can be with anyone
assess all your options
If you wanna kiss a friend, get their permission
Don't just lean or lunge
consent is so important
Cause they can say "No" in a thousand ways
And that's how you'll know to respect their space
Cause they can say "No" by showing they're uncomfortable
and that's how you'll know, to slow your roll
When looking for an expert opinion
on making connections
first consult your conscience
If you wanna kiss a friend ask their permission
don't just lean or lunge
consent is so important
Cause you can say "No" in a thousand ways
and that's how you'll show that you need your space
Cause you can say "No" by showing your uncomfortable
and if they don't notice,
they're an asshole.
You have my consent
You have my consent
You have my consent
You have my consent
You have my consent
Do I have your consent?
You have my consent
Do I have your consent?
You have my consent
You have my consent
You have my consent

Thomas and Wesley
Two young brothers
Wesley and Gus Gus
Accompany each other
Gus paints on the back porch
When I come home they both smile at me
Nothings better than to feel their love.
Thomas lines up his cars
while Wesley crawls beneath the table
searching intently for Cheerios or macaroni
He's well fed, but still scavenging
Nothing's better than to feel their love.
Thomas and Wesley
Two handsome brothers
Playing in the yard
Their hands dipped in clovers
I hold them both closely
This is everything I want life to be
Nothing's better than to feel their love.

If you did what you said you would never do
Would it change our routines:
Where we sleep?
Where we live?
How we kiss?
What pursuits we pursue?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
What you do
If we shattered against the wall like a glass bowl of fruit
would we leave a mark at all?
Would we split?
Would we stain?
Would we drip into juice?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
Haven't you seen the view of what you do?
Of what you do what you do what you do what you what you do what you do

Got a song to sing
To my 2nd son
About the things in life that haven't yet been done
I'll teach him how to be
A caring gentle soul
To embrace diversity with a pure heart
It's a lucky thing to have a 2nd son
I can't imagine my life now without one
Walk along my child
find your way
I'll be by your side everyday
Wesley you're my child
don't be a afraid
If they ocean is wild
break the waves
Wesley
Wesley
Wesley
