lyrics

I believe in everything cause there's nothing to believe
he looks at the moon and sees a horse's wing

and auntie wants her cig back
and her face upon a postage stamp
to be mailed along to a distant land

a cozy bed of grass and dirt a hideaway beneath the earth
tell me how it feels to have a sense of worth

and ask me how i'm doing
and have i found what suits me
without losing it completely

show me how to count to ten and then believe me that i can
so you dare me to hold my breath and wait till i reach ten
i only had the nerve to lie but i can't count that high
so know it's not pretend when i pretend to die

if you wanna know why i couldn't go
ask another man who understands

everything is new i'm on mah knees
i wanna learn about the words and bees

measure my heart in bpm
cash it at the bank and make it bend

if you wanna care i'll be there
i guess you don't and i'm dead broke for life

I'm dead for life

You're Better Than This

This album fucks as hard as dripping and magic but imo feels the most personal and emotional release of the three. It’s weird and frantic but hits this really interesting balance. jude
