lyrics

i don't want to know how you feel.
i'm nervous that i'll be discouraged if it's revealed,
because you aren't real.
so, there's nothing, really, you can say.
i don't think you're that persuasive.
i don't think i can be swayed.
i can't come out to play.
we're playing strange and acting up.
you notice every new neurosis and think i have enough.
and you keep acting tough.
the hardest part is sorting through the garbage.
knowing what to discard is the hardest part.
i don't want to see what you see,
for the fear that i might panic every time you look at me, or
that i may disagree.
there's something heavy in the way.
there's something bright, alive, and
lying in the path of our parade.
but i don't know the name, so
i'm calling out and talking shit.
paper the walls with all my organs and wait to see what sticks
or if it's safe to read your lips.
the hardest part is sorting through the garbage.
knowing what to discard is the hardest part.
how far apart these shots in the dark seem keeps me guarding my garbage heart.
