lyrics
Sharp sudden pains and butterfly shaped glands
All that remains are the things you can’t stand
But your words are like water your words are like sand
Your words are intangible slip through my hands
And I’m scared that you think and I’m scared that I am
Oh please let me tell you how afraid I am
I threw up in your sink
I washed it all down
As you pushed your way through the heat of the crowd
I called out your name
I let us both down
I let you feel big let you push me around
But no more high school dances for us
No more hiding behind spiral bound notebooks
I’m scared that you’re scared that we’re changing too quickly
I’m not scared of you scared of what you could be
As I dig both my hands right down under my scalp
I let my hair fall it already falls out
And we raced the clock raced the hospital lights
You said please don’t say goodbye just say goodnight
I’m not sleeping I’m existing in a cold dark dim room
I wish I was different I wish I was you
And my body is leaden my throat weighs me down
My body is all you have left of our hometown
And I’m clawing at the walls I’m crawling away
I’m so terrified that you’ll ask me to stay
My life smells like rot
Like mildew and pot
And yours is the feeling of stomachs in knots
I tore at my skin
My blood on the rocks
You swore and you said I don’t know what I’ve got
But no more second chances for us
No more biding our time in your bedroom
I’m thinking we’re fucked there’s no way that we’re not
But we’re just not the types to be chased down and caught
And I figured this shit out I figured you out
I finally realized what you’re all about
You want to be kissed soft you want to be right
You don’t want my goodbyes you just want my goodnights
I don’t think my heart could beat that much faster
Without bursting and painting my dark insides bright
I don’t think I want to see this disaster
It’s hurting us both to even put up a fight
And we race the clock race the hospital lights
You say please don’t say goodbye just say goodnight
