a. savage - my new green coat lyrics

[verse 1]
photoautomat
portraits of a thousand nights spent dining
but mostly wining with angels
some stick out their tongues
some of them slept in my bed
and a few of them even had funerals
my collection of
items signifying love
they don’t all spark joy but they all have meaning
meaning tends to sit
on the surface of the past
because memories, like objects and people need cleaning

[chorus]
my new green coat
has got a belt that i can tie
into a knot when i want it closed tightly
my new green coat
that my dear friеnd gave to me
is the most rеcent, best thing i have

[verse 2]
she told me that it lived
in the met museum
and i could see it, in a case behind glass
reasons to stay packed in boxes
safe from the risk of belonging
prolonging my hesitance
my ceramic dog
wags its tail as if it sees you crawling
from the night through my window
turn it upside down
and see the letters of my name
arranged in no particular way
ren and stimpy toys
the first obsession in my life
reminds me of the meaning in an object
this one was my first
i hesitate to call it “it”
he has a name and once he almost got lost in a fire
that i set
[outro]
reasons to stay, i’m uncounting them
’cause you are the reason that kept me
and i’m taking what’s left of me
reasons to stay, i am weighing them
’cause staying feels like a coercion
and leaving desertion
