lyrics

Born nineteen
Never had a chance to breathe
Never knew anything that wasn’t told to me

Something stirs
Inside me
Balance Zero
On the psyche
It holds me
And scolds me

and wishes I was better
wishes I was better

Why can’t I be better
Why can’t I be better
Why can’t I be better

Or allowed to roam
feeling soul
all else have

but instead
It’s me
and this other me

Locked inside a flat
With dark, high, legs
Too wet to climb
I spend my time

Down, I lost
Photos of her body
Taking things personally
And always the wrong way

Always the wrong way
Always the wrong day
Always the wrong say
Always the wrong way
