lyrics

As people we must remain kinetic as to avoid the shadows of our past
(I want to grow wool over my eyes to keep out the biting cold)
I will attempt to grow until my bones no longer fit my skin
Because I have learnt the hard way that nostalgia is death
(Blackened clouds taint grey hearts and suffocate open lungs)


So I'll kiss your toes.
Because I don't deserve to look at your face
Sex is the last thing on my mind
but that doesn't mean I’m not using you

So I'll kiss your toes.
Because I don't deserve to look at your face
I am nothing compared to cheeks and a forehead
Not worth of my lips
(Blindfolds are just as bad as empty sockets)

I push out all this misplaced affection
because I’m scared of appreciating myself
I’ll fight off my insecurities with eccentric romance

You are just an idea in my headfilling up a hole that my past has left
(Transparency breeds loneliness)
