lyrics

They took my brain
And how I feel
They took my rain
They took my fields

Trust me on what I lack
Give me back

They took my mouth
And used it wrong
They drowned me out
Abused my songs

Trust me on what I lack
Give me back

I want this bubble to pop
I wanna get sick and I want to die
I have a needle in all 8 of my hands
But I’m too scared to try

I’m shrinking cuz I wanna shrink
deep down I’m drowning in the kitchen sink
I wanna do more than think
About being cloaked in glitter and pink

I think I want the fire to stop
But if that were true then why
Do I spend so much time in red iron lands
I guess it’s just misapplied

My house will burn down with a punch and a wink
My eyes will melt before I can blink
I’ll knock out the glass if I think it’s too weak
I need more than a river to drink

Do you want to go away
Cuz you can go away
Who would want to stay
In such a horrible place
When you’re at my door
Is it to laugh or
Is there something more
Is there really a floor

A small locked man made of dust and fractured wind
A lonely box man sinking in rust and singe
My hands
Are invisible
I can’t
Grab
Why would I do this to me
Give me
Your spine
Your chest
Take mine
I don’t wanna make history
Small home
Strong arm
Ascend hope
Tin farm
Let’s burn it all to mystery

I’m gonna sink through the floor again
They say that’s just how it goes
You lifted your rock for your only friends
You’re wondering what happened to their nose
Nobody knows
Pick axe yeses and nos
Picking away my skin again today
It’s just what I have to do
Rip open my head to let my brain escape
Blend it into a goo
To spray over you
Pink turns into blue

I trip myself down an endless flight of stairs with broken tears
When there’s finally finally finally fire starting here
I watch as fake towns I would love shrink into the years
Screaming silence me silence me silence me rust all my gears

I wanna go home (x3)
I wanna be alone

Arms around my waist
Erasing it whole
Gold gun in my face
Making me cold
Encroach on my space
Punch a hole
Through my head
Through my bed
