lyrics

Coming out of my shell
Coming up again for air
You wanna play a little game?
How long can we look the other way?

Said love’s like waiting on a falling star
Burns out when your eyes are closed
I’m choking on an eyelash
Think of giving up the ghost

Pixie cut at the back of the room
Suddenly she’s looking at you
(What, who me? Oh no that can’t be)
She said I’ll be a cutie after she takes her medicine
But I was happy cause I hadn’t had mine
(Well okay, I’ll come out and play)

Ten milligrams and I feel alright
She doesn’t wanna go to sleep tonight
She said love’s like an empty pizza box in the fridge
Optimistic til you open the lid

And we all gasp when she takes of her glasses
Who would’ve known she was hiding a queen
(Oh we should have known, it’s so obvious)
She puts her toes to the edge of the roof
She’s just an animal with nothing to prove
(Nothing but loose ends, nothing but fake friends)
I feel the hurricane up in my chest
I feel the water rise over my head
(Just let it in, you can never win)

We’re running fast down the fire escape
Ninety-five dollars for the broken vase
Cause I’ll do anything to keep my cool
Fireworks behind the back of the school

Well I was in on it but she was the brains
So I’ll be back tomorrow to clean up the eggs
(Oh I can explain, I just wanna fit in)
She’ll leave me on the highway with no clothes
Humiliated all the way back home
(Oh don’t look so low, it was just a joke)
I’m choking on an eyelash
Choking on an eyelash
(Can somebody help, cause I’m having a fit
Cause I know what I like, but I don’t know when to quit)

Lashing out at myself
No one really seems to care
