about

a song about the fear and fascination associated with death

lyrics

i felt like i was pushed against the wall
it’s just not a part of me i think about
it’s something that i barely touch at all
don’t ask me if i’d ever eaten toothpaste

i only wanted to melt
bring me back to the green and grey
tell me what i don’t think to say
you can’t ruin another day

i only wanted to stop feeling
now i kinda know my feelings
and i still don’t know my feelings
but i learn to love my feelings

i know that i don’t own this house
and i’ll probably never own a house
but at least i have my own belongings

and i don’t need to wipe my mouth
and you don’t tell me what to do
i wash my eyes when i get home and wait

and i hope you never change
you don’t have to change for me
and i might not be the one for you
but i will always be a friend of yours
i think i’d rather sleep on the floor
everybody knows that i’m a body full of blood

we can dream together
and our bodies will turn into liquid together

i know that i don’t own this house
and i’ll probably never own a house
but at least i have my own belongings

and i don’t need to wipe my mouth
and you don’t tell me what to do
i wash my eyes when i get home and wait

there’s an eyelash to wish on
and it’s stuck between my teeth
and i’m scared of crashing cars
cause everybody knows that i
would simply fall apart
