Display Kitchen

from 02​/​10 Afternoon by Phoenix Mundy

lyrics

Wandering through display kitchens
what a fine array to show me what I'm missing in my life
in a palette of varying shades of off-white
I step on through
I'm a lawyer, now an architect
I'll host a party and I'll make sure that my mark is left this time
as I spill out onto crisp lines chrome finishes
cause the wine diminishes my self doubt
I was always left out as a child
so I let my mind run wild

Take me on from this
I just want your promises
wash away the ugly bits
like you put away the dishes

In the bedroom filled the drawers
with clothes that'll never be worn
so I can imagine what it's like to adorn my body
in peach, grey
wake up in the morning with a smile on my face
and come home to a man who will slide his arms round my waist
and say hey
been a long day
and I'll take him to the night
and show him what it's like when I'm a wife

no-one gets to go near the space we made in here
no-one gets to go near my love

Just take me on from this
I just want your promises
wash away the ugly bits
like you put away the dishes

Cause all my life I looked up to what I knew
as what I was supposed to do
like there was one then there were two
and in this space we thrive
honey where you been, no alibis
I can't try to summarise you
but I just know that I'll come home and find you tangled up
with your eyes black, mouth agape
and I'll never, ever ever ever
forget the shape of her
