ooh, did you think i wouldn’t see
that you’re foolish to reduct me
to a trope consumed easily
cause i belong to nobody
i belong to nobody
ooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh ooh
when you indulge your fears
achilles heel is clear
your achilles heel is clear
but you, darling, you
i’ve seen you
recoil at my bow and arrow
but my poise, you should’ve known
though you’ve sought control
the sound has always been my own
ooh, ooh, ooh, oooooooh ooh
when your indulge your fears
achilles heel is clear
your achilles heel is clear

Alone

and i know
this is what
we wanted
my sweet love
no use hiding anymore
under heavy metaphors
wanna follow you around
i’ll never be alone
feel bigger than myself
but i know that i cannot leave here
so i’m doing the work
for the both of us
the way your sympathy bleeds
i commend your heart
most beautiful thing
absorbs too much of me
i’ve been singing ceaselessly
you’re so easy to be around
and i don’t wanna brave being
so far from you now
but there is nothing i can do
for your luck i can’t condemn you
neither can i wait for you

Seethe

is it cause i’ve bared my teeth
that i’m owed nothing
though blunted, intimidating
i’m bones of everyone
still i’ve yet to succumb
to a threat so lopsided
eagerly you speak for
a plight you’ve not endured
postured like a moralist
but spewing only empty words
i can’t convince you
when your livelihood
depends on
a lack of understanding
what could you learn?
when you depend on
willful ignorance
plainly an opportunist
upholding no one but yourself
while i go on without regrets
you’ve lost the trust of everyone else

Void

swallowed a void
my sweet nullity
when i am running
surely, it’s diminishing
but i want you around
you are diffuser of my doubt
you are diffuser of my doubt
you relieve me
no one said i’m devoid
of any highs
of any hymns
mmm
ooh, but is this enough for me now?
sucked in by the bigger sound
ooh, in the roar my voice had drowned
now they’ll hear me plenty loud

Soothe
02:50
|

gazing up
at the rose window
where the light shines through
what you let
fester
i was there to soothe
and i was born
with a knack for
saying the right words to you
and though i’m
wholly consumed
there’s nothing else i could ever do
