lyrics

Outside,
You said,
“It’s not like I know you how you wanted you to be”
I stood
Waiting
Until it started making any sense to me

And I was hearing all the traffic in the street
And I was feeling all the streetlights looking down on me
Violent and bright
Like this was something worse
Than just another lousy night
There is a lesson I could learn
But I am always just misunderstanding words

And sweating from the heat
And all this gravity that’s weighing down on me
And I swear, sometimes I just go blank,I just stand there
Cracking all the knuckles in my hands

Until the surface starts
To tear and come apart
Ultraviolet and white
Like I had set the atmosphere alight
This world that tries to hide our hearts
In these bodyparts

And our skin is bubbling up
And our chests have melted into mud
I am torn and come apart
And I will not be waking up
