one with the decor

(album: if we're being honest - 2023)

Start stating the obvious, take weight off of the audience
You're blistering and calloused in your worn-out shoes
Forge the path you stagger down
In hopes that you'll come back around
It's cold inside these hand-me-downs, but I'll pull through
Start stating the obvious, take weight off of the audience
You're blistering and calloused in your worn-out shoes
Forge the path you stagger down
In hopes that you'll come back around
It's cold inside these hand-me-downs, but I'll pull through

Am I dancing on the edge, or is the edge really imaginary?
Falling short of breath, I'm reading into what's unnecessary
Does this mean anything? 'Cause I am unsure
I'm closing my eyes, becoming one with the decor

Substance, I need something
I've been floating, feeling nothing
I'm in search of what's inside me
Several people in my body
I don't know them, they've been lying
Twisting cables, falsifying
Gripping onto what is left
I'm trying hard to just forget
The person that I am waiting for
Once everybody's left ignored
Am I deranged for feeling torn?
I am I, I am I
Is it okay to close my eyes?
For I'm afraid of what I'll find
Tucked under tape that's stuck inside
Holding on, holding on

This is not imaginary, I can feel it flow
Trickling inside of me whenever I'm alone
Porcelain my face and ivory beneath the bone
Deep beneath my bones, oh
My absence was temporary, please pick up your phone
Sorry for the gaps in conversation, I was stoned
Certain I was trying, now I'm dying real slow
Guess it's time to go, oh

And now the scars that haunt your mind
Capture and hold on to your eyes
Lock them in place for one last time
Here we are, here we are
For when you wake up, you will find
All of the things you've left behind
Start to configure and align
I am I, I am I
