Let's take a moment to appreciate the way this feels
We won't come back this way again
It's hard to tell for sure which elements of this are real
And which are chemically enhanced
I'm pretty certain I am here because I wanna be
But it's not easy to tell what I want from what I need
This fuckin' sickness is disintegrating all of me
And soon I will be nothing more
Than a puddle on the living room floor
No longer capable of rational thought
Just a stomach and a jumble of nerves
I had something to say, but I've forgotten
How to say the simplest words
♪
Let's take a breath and then
Let's ta- (do you need a minute?)
Let's take a breath and then another till the feeling slows
Maybe we can try again
I hate this body
I hate this body
I am more scared of myself than I am of anyone else
And, oh
I am so sorry for the way I come and go like this
Although you say that you don't mind
The trouble is I never navigated out of this
It grows until I'm nothing more
Than a puddle on the living room floor
No longer capable of rational thought
Just a stomach and a jumble of nerves
I had something to say, but I've forgot
I guess it's not important at all
These days I struggle with a lone goodbye
So if it's cool with you, that's all I'm gonna say
All I'm gonna say, yeah
I think that's all you're gonna get from me tonight
This body is built on the ruins of
All the people I have ever been
Wise men build their houses on rocks
While the rest of us settle for skeletons
This body is built on the ruins of
All the people I have ever been
Wise men build their houses on rocks
While the rest of us settle for skeletons
Oh, this body is built on the ruins of
All the people who I've ever been
Wise men build their houses on rocks
(While the rest of us settle for skeletons)
The rest of us settle for skeletons
