Ross Gay - Love, You Got Me Good lyrics

Honeybunny, for you, I've got a mouthful of soot. Sweetpea, for you, I always smell like blood. Everything that touches me, Lovemuffin, turns to salt. When I think of you I see fire. When I dream of you I hear footsteps on bones. When I see you I can feel the scythe's smooth handle in my palm. Love, you got me standing at attention. Clutching my heart. Polishing guns. Love, I got a piggy bank painted like a flag. I got a flag in the shape of a piggy bank. For you, Sugarfoot, I've been dancing the waterboard. You're under my skin, Love. Don't know what I'd do without you, Love.
