lyrics

It better be somewhere,
it better be better being ‘dead’,
‘cus it doesn’t feel it,
I wasn’t living,
though I wasn’t feeling half as bad,
I made a killing.
Watch me be always
watching the exits out the back,
watch me be spinning,
stood in the hallway,
laying me back across your chest,
let me be swimming
in the taste of my liver,
the taste of my stomach giving in,
I wasn’t hindered,
but I barely got anywhere,
barely got anything,
barely got started,
and you said “did it always?”,
getting in bed with all the guilt,
I didn’t plan it,
this semi-god living,
the risible thoughts I hated having,
bury them deeper,
and I hate that I froze up,
whenever I tried to lay it out,
but I wasn’t lying,
and it was brave to be honest,
but I know I was hardly like a lion,
I’m just glad that I said it,
so let me just lay, man -
if it set me off laughing
I couldn’t control it -
you just let me replay it,
and you let me eat lightning,
I totally get it.

When you rested your head on
me, that was when I split in two,
that left me empty.
You said you were sorry,
you said you had sounded like a giant,
I barely heard it.
