Final Girl

(album: Screen Violence - 2021)

Swallowing the seeds of sins we sewed into the ground
Keeping secrets until everything became a bit too loud
I could wash it down
I could drown it out
By filling up the silence with an organ sound
And by writing sentences I used to think were quite profound

And it feels like the weight is too much to carry
I should quit, maybe go get married
Only time will tell
And I wonder if I should've changed my accent
Tried to make myself more attractive
Only time will tell

In the final cut
In the final scene
There's a final girl
And you know that she should be screaming

Telling all the tales took time that I just do not have
Sifting further through the wreckage, I think you just have to laugh
Try to take it back
As it turns to black
Don't want to find your daughter in a body bag
So I need to get out now while most of me is still intact

And it feels like the weight is too much to carry
I should quit, maybe go get married
Only time will tell
And I wonder if I should've changed my accent
Tried to make myself more attractive
Only time will tell

In the final cut
In the final scene
There's a final girl
Does she look like me?
In the final cut
In the final scene
There's a final girl
And you know that she should be screaming now
