Rooftop

There's bugs under my skin
I don't blame 'em there's nowhere else to live
And they're eating my insides
Makes me wonder what I taste like

There's people in my walls
I can't prove it
But I surely hear them talk
And they give me my nightmares

I've boarded up my windows
Because the sunlight tells the shadows where I am
And they're my only friends
Because tomorrow the world comes to an end

I'm in isolation
Cause someone's at my door waiting to break my knees
When God speaks, He only speaks to me
Metaphorically
But I can't believe in myself

I've eaten my family
The stove's burning, I can smell it across the house
I'll make a garnish with the mouse that I smashed with my bare hands
Then I'll fit my blouse and learn to dance on my rooftop

There's monsters living in the corners of my dining room
They whisper secrets of impending doom and how death, it looms
And it affects my mood and my health
But I'm already perfect

And everyone will see my genius in due time
But for now I'll pick the flies from behind my eyes
So I can look at myself and realize
That I'm you're savior

And I'll stop the murders in the city streets
When God speaks, He only speaks to me
Metaphorically
But I can't believe in myself

I've eaten my family
The stove's burning, I can smell it across the house
I'll make a garnish with the mouse that I smashed with my bare hands
Then I'll fit my blouse and learn to dance on my rooftop

My enemies have found me and I can't hide
So before I die
I'll put on my best pants
Then fit my blouse and learn to dance on my rooftop
