Animals

Hide in the bathroom where you can keep it all together
Cry to yourself until you start to feel better
You're feeling like screaming but you just pretend
Repeating yourself again and again, saying
I'm so tired of these animals
Acting like their skin's so valuable
Telling me that I'm irrational
I'm so tired of these animals
Hide in the bathroom until you find your composure
Lie to yourself until your fever starts to pass over
Appealing to the widest audience
Repeating yourself until it's obvious, saying
I'm so tired of these animals
Acting like their skin's so valuable
Telling me that I'm irrational
I'm so tired of these animals
I'm so tired of these animals
Acting like their skin's so valuable
Telling me that I'm irrational
I'm so tired of these animals

Losing Touch
03:24

I've been making plans, plans to make plans
plans to make friends, and plans to make sense
of these ideas that I seem to get stuck on
I come undone in conversation
getting hung up on all of the
subtleties I overthink, oh my god, what's wrong with me?
"Don't act so strange, just make eye contact
Don't sweat, just laugh, react, talk back"
I'm losing touch, losing touch, losing touch
Telling myself
To loosen up, loosen up, loosen up
Telling myself, to hold on
I can put on the best intentions
and I can pretend just enough
for me to seem a bit less unbearable
I've been making plans I don't understand
plans with loose ends that don't make sense
and I can't keep repeating these routines I get stuck on
"Don't act so scared, don't stare, relax
Don't breathe so fast, just smile, it's not that bad"
I'm losing touch, losing touch, losing touch
Telling myself
To loosen up, loosen up, loosen up
Telling myself, to hold on
"Don't act so strange, you'll be okay"
I don't even know why I get so stressed out
"You'll be alright, you'll be just fine"
I know, I know
"Ooh Loosen up" I said "Ooh loosen up, cause you've been losing touch"
"Ooh loosen up" I said "ooh loosen up, ooh, ooh, ooh"
I'm losing touch, losing touch, losing touch
Telling myself
To loosen up, loosen up, loosen up
Telling myself, to hold on

She Doesn't Like Me
03:51

I'm slowly boring her, and her mind is drifting on
She's only waiting for, the first chance to turn and run
I guess it was a little much, I never know what's enough
She's finding little flaws in me
She said she feels like laying low
But I can wait until my blood runs cold
She doesn't spend enough time alone
She just don't like me, She don't like me
Something changed in her tone
but that was like months ago
Last I saw her she was bathing in light
Struggling to hide her cynical side
And then she walked away, unchanged, unscathed
Too late to say why she couldn't stay
Last I saw her she was alright
She said she feels like laying low
But I can wait until my blood runs cold
She doesn't spend enough time alone
She just don't like me, She don't like me

Bury Me

I felt her breath crawl across my chest as she laid next to me
I felt it creep in through my skin
She wants to bury me, She wants nothing else
She wants to bury me, She wants nothing else
Breathing me in
Just to breathe me out
Breathing me in, Breathing me in
I let the silence take hold, of its death grip on me
I've realized that I can't hold the hand that's gonna take
She wants to carry me, All the way to the cemetery
She wants to bury me, She wants nothing else
Breathing me in
Just to breathe me out
Breathing me in, Breathing me in
She wants to bury me, She wants nothing else
She wants to bury me, She wants nothing else
She wants, she wants
