Spinster Cycle

You know the date on the
 Oldest coin in your palm
 I know the names of the
 Flowers along the back wall
 But I get afraid one of us is bluffing
 The blooms they will fade and the
 Change will amount to nothing
 Nothing at all
 The laundromat's funny
 At two in the morning
 The blonde on tv says
 I too can be gorgeous
 And hairless! It's easy
 With laser assistance
 I wish you would push me
 Around in the bins but we're
 Talking serious
 While the colors bleed
 While the colors bleed
 While the colors bleed
 You know the full weight of
 Every wager you've lost
 I know for certain that
 Certainty comes at a cost
 But I get afraid of what I can't define
 So I tally affections
 Like nickels and dimes in your palm
 Like your palm in my palm
 My parents met in a
 Laundromat parking lot
 I almost tell you but
 Then I think not to
 We focus on pulling our
 Lights from our darknesses
 We separate even though
 We've got sparks
 We separate even though
 We've got sparks
 While the colors bleed
 While the colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
 Our colors bleed
