Your New Haircut

Your new haircut is swimming at the foot of my bed It's not the sideways glances, but Awkward chances you dread I can hardly remember the words you said But they're there in the hair Fallin' from your head You burned off every follicle You slaved over so long ago to get To fall in the right places To look through at the faces you'd wet With tongues or laughs or kisses Is it harder to miss than to forget? I guess The time has come for killing it Desire, or my unwillingness to rest Or test myself a little bit Get rid of all the little shit you left Your new haircut is all that I could want it to be You cut off that old part of you Renewed yourself for everyone to see But if I'm being honest, all I want's for you To grow back into me I can't see anything My new haircut's been growin' Since the day you left I wanna get it all out of my face I'm afraid of stepping back You always liked it shorter The last time that you saw me You just laughed What was that?
