Lyrics

Rootless and floating
But at least it's never boring
I am good until I'm panicky
But I think I like the honesty
This isn't normally a thing I do
But I like being in your blue room
Close my eyes, savor the taste
Before you start to slip away
And I don't know how to say it to myself
'Cause she's the one who cannot help
Blame my luck, paper physique
I parrot, I doublespeak
I think I like myself, it's not enough
Need you to say it's me you want
Want to see you, again
So bad, and have what I never had
Is this how you're supposed to feel
Bittersweet and unappealing
I color-code every damn thing
Swear I'm like you, I draw and sing
It's rainy, I feel kind of sick
I guess that I can't handle it
But I don't know how to say it to myself
'Cause she's the one who cannot help
Blame my luck, paper physique
I parrot and I doublespeak, I
Think I like myself, it's not enough
Need you to say it's me you want
Mmm, I hold your hand sink in the blue
Goddamn, I wish you'd love me too
The things I want, the things I seek
Mouth tied shut, get on your knees
Oh I'm 21, I want my fun
You girls, how can you run and run
So jealous that I cannot speak
But I want you, it makes me bleed
