lyrics

Listened to 'she she shine on' and wondered why not settle down
Burn my arm
Brand me with your taste of pain today people pleaser
Pour on salt
When I'm not talking, you are talking, you say you know me better than yourself
Touch with ice
Ears filled with crossed fingers, taking in the echos of your own voice

Soaking my head in bleach, I whiten my own teeth
Wiping away my eyes, leave them in bluer skies
Surely I'm ill-prepared, life without comfort gets better
Stayed the line of classic decision, and eyes forward always

Counting the damaged cars, retract your delicate mirrors
Constantly asking what, answering questions with questions
Ignoring a piece unglued, swearing that I've felt sicker
Fielding a heavy doubt, calls are confirming the worst

Hair piled in awful mound, earful of days without sound
Over-extend my reach, retract half a limb gnawed clean
Make a meal of my decision to trust people won't take advantage
Been told I'm too trusting, find light in dark places, I'm too close to humans
