Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You held me
You held me so hard I went bluish
I resolve to set boundaries
I went bluish, I went bluish
[Verse 2]
Smothered me with fake blood and ginger
Around your throat
Always charming and balanced
That's why it hurt the most
I got so claustrophobic
But you were never close enough
Hey
[Verse 3]
It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
[Verse 4]
Shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
Shouldn't have to
[Verse 5]
I went bluish, I went bluish
[Verse 6]
You twist violets in my eyes
Always in my house just smoking
Drinking tea, collecting spines
Never had the chance to miss you
I had never had the chance to miss you
[Verse 7]
Heart in my mouth
Please let me out
Please let me out of you
Heart in my mouth
Please let me out
Please let me out of you
[Verse 8]
It's not easy when you call me in the dead of the night
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
It's not easy when you call me with your voice pink and white
When I say I need some space
I shouldn't have to ask you twice
[Verse 9]
Shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
Shouldn't have to ask you twice
I shouldn't have to
