Sour

(album: Can't Stay Forever - 2022)

Hide your pain, keep it down
You've been carrying it around
You like the way the weight of it leaves you sour
Cold shoulder, numb and proud
You could swim but you'd rather drown
Head under water
Tell me where you go when the lights are out

Disintegrate as the pain fades
Shed your skin
Chase the feeling of your favourite escape
Disintegrate in the same way
Shed your skin
Comatose but you're saying you're awake

Sink too deep, pull the pin
Play the game that you never win
You don't know when to quit
Leaves you heavy 'cause you'll never admit
You swallow the medicine that's been keeping you
Safe inside your chemical headspin
Tell me where you go when all the lights are out

Disintegrate as the pain fades
Shed your skin
Chase the feeling of your favourite escape
Disintegrate in the same way
Shed your skin
Comatose but you're saying you're awake

Been waiting to feel brand new again
Any way to find a means to an end
Bruising down to the bone just to feel something
Then start it over when you shed your skin

Disintegrate as the pain fades
Shed your skin
Chase the feeling of your favourite escape
Disintegrate in the same way
Shed your skin
Comatose but you're saying you're awake

Comatose but you're saying you're awake
Comatose but you're saying you're awake
