HOUNDSTOOTH Lyrics by Camie

2024

Oh I’m ragged and rough and I live in the city alone
And I slept with a man with a mind like the Rosetta Stone
In his face, though, I pictured you
And I woke in the morning so brazen and bored and blue
It’s true
And I hoped it would hurt if you knew

Oh I tore up my love songs and lost all my language for you
And I finally found a new downtown to rove my way through
But I dream of being something else
And I fear becoming, but

Everyday I try so hard to trace the forms of who we are
And I’m sick of being such a wreck
But I’ll beg like a dog at your door
Till a ring’s on the finger of somеone you love more

Now I barе all my teeth and I fall at your feet for a bone
And I howl at the moon-flooded skyscraper stacks on my own
And I’ve grown a conspicuous pelt
I’ve been touching your name on my phone
More than I touch myself

Once I saw you in rose coloured tones, now I see you in grey
And I’m feral and fierce but you’ve got me obedience trained
And your address still hangs ‘round my neck
That I’ll keep running home to

But everyday I wake alone
How I’ve grown and grown and grown
And I’ve lost all self respect so I’ll beg like a dog at your door
Till a ring’s on the finger of someone you love more

(And I’ll beg like a dog, like a dog, like a dog at your door)

And I’m not the same woman you loved
I’m vicious and I’m violent
Oh, what a shame you tripped on my tongue and
Caught on my houndstooth scarf
We fall apart
And I’m so sick of being alone, so I’ll beg like a dog
Till a ring’s on the finger of someone you love more
Till a ring’s on the finger of someone you love
