Small

All The Time

our rent grew
my girl sat down
she held a violin
she took the bow, she broke it
throat swelled with words unspoken
hoped that i might find you on placement
i cracked my skull on the pavement
i wanna be the one that you love
i wanna be the one that you hurt

no one could get near you
you don't wanna be used
i dont wanna know ya, i just wanna hold ya
said i couldn't see you
the same way i used to
i dont wanna know ya, i just wanna hold ya

draped on my neck like a sweater
wish you clung there forever
never thought you'd change your mind
hung on little signs
all caught up in your tan lines
read something different in your eyes

brother said that he's moving on to the next city
i heard the fracture in your chest ringing, so pretty

i'll be right by your side

no one could get near you
you don't wanna be used
i dont wanna know ya, i just wanna hold ya
said i couldn't see you
the same way i used to
i dont wanna know ya, i just wanna hold ya

the sky split open
we stood there and watched just laughin and jokin
a path to destruction
used to be fun, now i do it just to function

Function

baby's giving me the cold shoulder
cus in her dream i cheated on her
found the battery in your phone the wrong way round again
it was going straight through to voicemail
i called it
kept picturing the ground beneath us swirling

conspiratorial thought patterns
anticipate the worst happening
away for days again
can't wait to see your dad
just wanna be that man
but i'm a kid and i'm yearning
kept picturing the ground beneath me swirling

we speak less in the morning
answer the door with red eyes
loving goodbyes while still yawning
couldn't get comfy in bed lies
so still and so alive
withdraw your warmth
stood there eviscerated
took some guts to say that stuff
speak your grievances
wisdom sat upon her brow
what once was isn't now

darls
