lyrics

He says he lives for words
Words will be the death of me
They take me down with their accuracy
and pierce me like a bullet

I wanna hear
Oh, Oh, Oh
I don’t wanna learn new things
I just wanna forget all the things I already know with that
Oh, Oh, Oh
I don’t wanna feel real things
I just wanna forget who I am, forget that I’m hollow

I like soft things, I like sweet things
But I’m a bite your nails down the skin and let ‘em bleed thing
I like nice things, I like clean things
But I’m a hold your breath until your lungs begin to scream thing
Cliches soothe me, Bass lines move me
Empty words are wonderfully coma inducing
Don’t wanna hear my heart beat, turn up the drum machine
Don’t wanna hear myself think, I wanna hear ‘em sing


Oh, Oh,Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,
I wanna sing with the chorus forget that I’m alone (x2)


I used to live for words
When I was in love with poetry
But now the lull of simplicity
is just the way I like it

My edges are so rough
Rougher than I ever thought they’d be
But synthetic sounds can soften me
Like a force of erosion, void of emotion

I like soft things, I like sweet things
But I’m a bite your nails down the skin and let ‘em bleed thing
I like nice things, I like clean things
But I’m a hold your breath until your lungs begin to scream thing
Cliches soothe me, Bass lines move me
Empty words are wonderfully coma inducing
Don’t wanna hear my heart beat, turn up the drum machine
Don’t wanna hear myself think, I wanna hear ‘em sing


Oh, Oh,Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,
I wanna sing with the chorus

It’s better if it’s repetitive, it’s repetitive, it’s repeti-teti-tetive (x3)
