lyrics

i don't work quite well yet
don't make me be important yet
im trying to heal still
don't tell me that it's not my time to kill

remove me if you need to
everybody is
i've lost track of what i've missed

from the center of my head flows a wooden ocean
from the soles of my feet vomits plastic electricity
i have just one request
please take me anywhere but here
anywhere but here

i read yr manifesto in like 20 seconds
im just a jagged scribble so its nice to know yr words
give me time to blink my eyes enough and
please take me anywhere but here
anywhere but here

can't stop prancing let me touch down on the ground first
ill take it how you choose to deal it just like we rehearsed
leather rose petals flying off my bare ass
we bring the dungeon down with class

everybody says my eyes are pretty
at least ive got something
if people were what they see
i think some would be nothing
i can't recognize what i am please take me
anywhere but here
anywhere but here

could it just be my increased dose or maybe that its spring
all the music sounds better 'round this time, its a thing
i guess
i know i got a flirt somewhere
they should take me
anywhere but here, my dear
