lyrics

I can’t stop getting up at five
Hence why I’m so tired
Of this mess

Tipsy and subject to
Dissociative tendencies
Gold kisses trace my whispers
And the audience watches intently
As I wake up numb

They’re all voluntarily modified
Deified
And tossed aside
By their own idea of sentiments
But they’ll never let you know that

Stinging dust from floorboards
Is welcomed into my respiration
As my blistered fingers yearn for more noise
Callous and distant
While playing the tune

The trepidation rising
I find it all so surprising
And gold laces my cheeks
Pouring out of my sockets this time

Melting in
My hands it’s
No longer
Edible

Sinking floor and shallow breaths
Clenching teeth and cold sweats
Finally making sense

Here we are, straying too far
I’m worried this time
And maybe I’m okay with that
It beats the monotony i’ve faced for
A decade now

Empty words mean nothing when you’re at my window
Even if you’re in my doorway
And all these years seem to have gone right down the drain

Stinging dust from floorboards
Is welcomed into my respiration
As my blistered fingers yearn for more noise
Callous and distant
While playing the tune

The trepidation rising
I find myself feeling at ease
And gold laces my cheeks
Pouring out of my sockets this time

I’ve been sick
And tired of
Becoming
Just like you

Your worm-eaten and verminous letters and journals are strung across the room today
Branded as a threat to any library
But they don’t taste nice to me
I’d rather consume your words directly as you hand them to me from your tongue
But I don’t have the heart or the guts to say that
And I hate it

Every noise I hear and sound you make
Anything that you do repeats on loop for me
Keep your eyes on me
The lights switch back on and
So do I

Stinging dust from floorboards
Is welcomed into my respiration
As my blistered fingers yearn for more noise
Callous and distant while playing the tune

The trepidation rising
I find myself feeling at ease
And gold laces my cheeks
Pouring out of my sockets this time
