mosquito

(album: things could be worse - 2021)

(I want you to know)
I'm getting bit up by all of the mosquitoes
Blister my skin, drink my blood like a needle
Collect my DNA in a vile
Clone me again, make me less suicidal
My only wish is to regain a smile
I really miss summer days as a child
Six flags, Suplexes, Eddie Guerrero
Now it's just sex, some caffeine and the narrow
Stairs album by the band death cab for cutie
I fear that eventually someone will shoot me
A loop of that scene from American beauty
But this ones for real, it's not just from a movie
My anxiety's got the worst of me lately
I don't know how the fuck you expect to save me
'Cause I can't save myself and honestly, baby
I want you to know that I hate me (Oh, what a fucking surprise!)

La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (I want you to know)
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (I want you to know)
Singing
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (I want you to know)
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (I want you to know)

If you made it this far then you're probably still dreaming
Listen to this when you feel like you need it
My only wish is to regain a smile
I really miss summer days as a child
