lyrics
Wash your hands with water
Bruise your hands with ice
Lime juice in your micro-cuts
But it pays to be nice
Salt water gargle
You’ve been shouting again
Wake up as the sun sets
And sing through the phlegm
With a fake name and enough conviction
You can reinvent yourself to strangers at Ric’s
I poured my heart out to them
And it hurt so much less
To be Rina seeking thrills through extreme sports
Than Anika with complex post traumatic stress disorder
‘Tis the life to be hollow and numb
A hole in your wallet and smoke in your lungs
Earning too little spending too much
Buying flowers when you can’t afford the bus
When I dance I can’t feel my legs
Our cohort’s the coffee, we are the dregs
Working too much not sleeping enough
The sun might rise with some luck
But really it’s something so divine
You me and this piss they call wine
And for now I have everything, all I need
They’re rare, they’re special, your kisses are free
This economy of love, we’ve got monopoly
I’ll buy you food and next time you’ve got me
And for now I have everything, all I need
They’re rare, they’re special, they’re just for me
This economy of love, we’ve got monopoly
I’ll buy you baccy if you roll one for me
Let’s get the fuck out of here
My head, the car, the valley
Out of here
To your bed, the heater on, it never works
It brings us closer
