I promise that there’s nothing wrong
When I get quiet, I’m feeling shy
Just let me sit with you

I promise that it’s not your fault
But when we fight
It’s so much more
I’m sleeping by your side

I promise that it’s all okay
When you’ve been crying, I’ll suck the tears
The rocksalt from your eyes

I’d let you cut the legs right off
Of every chair
I’d glue them back
So you could sit somewhere

We don’t have to keep control
We don’t have to take it slow
Take it slow

Honestly, I’m sick of making promises I’ll never keep
I’d rather be alone
Muscle through the loneliness
A feeling so familiar
Guess I’ll make it my home

We don’t have to keep control
We don’t have to take it slow
We don’t have to keep control
We don’t have to take it slow
Take it slow

Trapped inside a skull-sized kingdom tonight The rot of rain in my nose And I can see her ribs when she’s sending me shower pics The yellows of the dusty rings …

How To Live

Did I fog the lens With crying eyes Did I get undressed To drop the disguise Trade common sin For common sense A life undone In heaps of regret Baby bird My cult of one …
