Trapped like an old wasp in a spider's web tied all around
Wings stuck can't fly out
Secure me tight
I won't fight
Laced around the thread

I came outside to smoke a cigarette
I ran out of things to make me feel better

Crawling under my spine like drops of gold turned into stone
They can't see me now
If I made the earth shake
Maybe I'd survive

There's a big white glove hanging above
The middle of a flooded room
The salty weather between the windows
It cracks my lips I can't trust this
I can't hide it

I came outside to smoke a cigarette
I ran out of things to make me feel better
