Peaches
If I took honest stock
Of my offerings, you don't need me
My best lamb, I've spilled blood
He's laid on the altar
The flames bring him closer to you
But you don't need this
I have schooled myself wrong
I measured the cost of my disappearance
Don't worry, it won't trouble long
You want me but you don't need me
I doubt that it's a surprise
I like to think that you'd miss my eyes
But you don't need me
I have seen enough dawns
You got by before me
You'll get by again when I'm gone
You don't need me
And I know you've been struggling
Taking this in is a lot
So I won't tell you, I'll stay secret
I'll hide a whisper away
I'll stay in silence and fade into gray
You won't notice
I have a circle of flames in my home
I dream of a ritual
Sticking my hand in the stove
Catching light
My lamb (it hurts)
Is charred to the bone (I don't mind)
I burned him on altars
While you were at home
You got by before me
You'll get by again when I go
You don't need me
And I know
Or at least I think
You'd be blue for a minute or two
When the news broke that I disappeared
Maybe one precious tear would drop
But you don't need me
You might like me, you might want me
You might love me
But you don't need me
You might like me
For all I know you might hate me
I never believed words of love
You don't need me
And I know
Cuz the voice in my head tells me so
I fought him a while
But I think that it's time that he won
Cuz I hate me, you don't want me
You don't need me
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind
I don't mind (I don't mind at all)
I don't mind
You don't need me
Of my offerings, you don't need me
My best lamb, I've spilled blood
He's laid on the altar
The flames bring him closer to you
But you don't need this
I have schooled myself wrong
I measured the cost of my disappearance
Don't worry, it won't trouble long
You want me but you don't need me
I doubt that it's a surprise
I like to think that you'd miss my eyes
But you don't need me
I have seen enough dawns
You got by before me
You'll get by again when I'm gone
You don't need me
And I know you've been struggling
Taking this in is a lot
So I won't tell you, I'll stay secret
I'll hide a whisper away
I'll stay in silence and fade into gray
You won't notice
I have a circle of flames in my home
I dream of a ritual
Sticking my hand in the stove
Catching light
My lamb (it hurts)
Is charred to the bone (I don't mind)

While you were at home
You got by before me
You'll get by again when I go
You don't need me

I never believed words of love
You don't need me
And I know
Cuz the voice in my head tells me so

But I think that it's time that he won
Cuz I hate me, you don't want me
You don't need me
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind, I don't
I don't mind
I don't mind (I don't mind at all)
I don't mind
You don't need me
