lyrics

My chest is humming, someone else’s heart
It’s a heavy weight to carry
And my system’s running full on too much blood
I burn what I can’t bury

Couldn’t you have told it to my face?
I’m alone outside my body
While you’re with somebody else some other place
You tell me that you’re sorry

And in that tone of voice you sound like her
And 2013 comes swinging back at me and hits me where it hurts

I took a chance one night and went out drinking
In some suburban crowded place
With all these white boys singing songs about revenge
And you were looking at me funny
With a fishing line for one word answers
So you could frame them in a book
And give them names and dates and numbers
Give them names and dates and numbers
You put your arms around me slowly
And I did not say no

No one’s asking me for much, but I’ve got nothing
No one’s asking me for much, but I’ve got nothing

And I’m okay
I’m okay
I’m okay enough to take my hands away

I’m sitting criss-cross on the bathroom floor
I don’t know where I’m going
But a hospital is better than a morgue
