Verse It's so easy to set off The molecules and the caplets They all have something against me Nothing I do makes me feel different Pre-Chorus This one's like your sister's best friends in a bath calling you to join them Can't avoid them This one's like your mother's arms when she was young and sunburned in the '80s It lasts forever Verse The more level they have me The more I cannot stand me I have helpless friendships And bad taste in liquids Pre-Chorus This one's like the wilderness without the world I'm gonna miss those long nights with the windows open I keep re-reading the same lines always up at 5am every morning Like a baby It's just the lights coming on It's just the lights coming on Verse I have no positions No point of view or vision I'm just trying to stay in touch with anything I'm still in touch with Pre-Chorus The sky's getting white I can't find a lighter anywhere I'm going crazy But I'm not crazy Put your heels against the wall I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you I'll still destroy you It's just the lights coming on It's just the lights coming on
