lyrics

Skin in glisten
Clench; envision your teeth
(your teeth)

Waive your mission
Switch position on me
(on me)

You're just as sick in my song
You never got the love I know you want
Separate the skin from your bone
You never got the love I know you want

So, do you need more?
Or am I just what you settled for?
Cast me a line, I'm terrified
Of finding out all of it was a lie

Blame the glitching
Sic religion on me
(I plead)

Force submission
You take control of my breathing

You're just as sick in my song
You never got the love I know you want
Separate the skin from your bone
You never got the love I know you want

So, do you need more?
Or am I just what you settled for?
Cast me a line, I'm terrified
Of finding out all of it was a lie
That all of it was a lie

Juxtapose my wish for death with a fear of it
Tangle tongues with every single, shallow, sunken breath
Tie me to my chair and burden me with you
Does the liquor tell the truth?
Pretend it's just a kiss and sit outside
Caught between the passed time and the light
Swore you seeped that feeling from my limbs
Someday we can cherish all of this

So, do you need more?
Or am I just what you settled for?
Cast me a line, I'm terrified
Of finding out all of it was a lie
That all of it was a lie
A lie
