yoshi's island

(album: the first glass beach album - 2019)

I can't take the pressure
Yeah, everybody thinks that you just need to grow up
I know it's hard, it's fucking impossible
Tryna make sense of the things that you feel now

With spiro and estro from Vanuatu
What the hell do you think that'll do to you?
I won't say "she" even though I know you want me to
I know that it's hard but I swear I still love you

I can't take the pressure
Cry on the bathroom floor when you look in the mirror
Cover your neck or they'll cut your head off
J you're only cute with your hearteyes and legs crossed

Write the things you think when you're out of your body
Run yourself out of words to say you're hopelessly lonely
And don't leave the city and don't leave the covers too
I know it's hard but I swear I still love you

I am never gonna understand
I am never gonna understand
I am everything you think about her
Behind her back, the whole truth
Does it hurt to say you love her like a son?
The world could kill her just cause she can't fit in right

Yeah! They'll make it so dangerous
When they leave no room to breathe in the space they carved out for us
When they get inside your head, give you white lies and black eyes
When they try to change your shape until your sense of self dies

But you make me feel like I'm out of my body
We ran out of words to say we're hopelessly lonely
So don't leave the city, please don't leave the covers too
Just stay right here babe, let's live life like lovers do

I am never gonna understand
I am never gonna understand
I am everything you think about her
Behind her back, the whole truth
Does it hurt to say you care about your son?
The world could kill her just cause she can't fit in right

You take spiro and estro from Vanuatu
You say you won't think about nothing but loving you
We're sleeping harbor seals on the seaside of Malibu
OK I won't think about nothing but loving you

Spiro and estro from Vanuatu
You say you won't think about nothing but loving you
We're sleeping harbor seals on the seaside of Malibu
OK I won't think about nothing but loving you too
