lyrics

I’m feeling automatic, like I’m out of control.

I’m out of control – I’m listening in.

The words I speak are never words I’d say.

I’d never live this year again if I could.

Remembering – the shitty thoughts I think

stuck on repeat in my head – can’t forget (no!).

Biting my lip ‘cause the tongue’s bit to shit already.

Shutting my mind off hasn’t ever been easy.

Words are just tongue to teeth to tongue.

Fabricated memories reinforce anxieties.

A record spins around this head.

Broken-teeth needles scratching out what should have been.

Locked in grooves of emptiness.

Just keeps spinning.

Year keeps repeating.

Tried and failed to hold it back – breathing in, spitting out.

Just keeps spinning.

Tried and failed to hold it back – every word falling out.

Year keeps repeating.
