lyrics

I’m drowning from my own attempt to stay afloat
making a pretty slipknot with my safety rope
I’m aching from my own twisted fidelity
tightening over everything that’s good in me

you think your skin is safe but you hate yourself in other ways
you think I don’t know what you don’t want me to hear

Come back at a time when gnawing on my knife has passed
what will I do when I hurt you
I don’t know if I could

Your choking on my throwaways
I’m laughing at your razor blades
breaking in my mouth
Looks like you’ve taken your life
well what’s next on the list
hairpins and rose cutlery

Come back at a time when gnawing on my knife has passed
what will I do when I hurt you
I don’t know if I could

Being kicked from inside
like a horse trying to hide
in my gut there’s not room
for you both I abort
push you out, stay afloat
go without, stay afloat
I abort I abort I abort I abort I abort
