Dark

I don't wanna cry in your t-shirt ever again
When my anger was a compliment
Like how your brain works
Magical thinkers tryin' to be friends

Tried to let you forget me
But my guilt across was heavy when it hit your fucking teeth
I'm sorry you felt undermined
Now I'm tryna make a racket in the back of your mind

Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot run away out of the dark

I've got agency but imagine me
Lying naked in your lap before a gathering of screaming fans
I'm your guitar, mute me gently with the palm of your hand
So self-conscious awareness just a catalyst
I'm scared, I close my eyes and picture this
Summer corn and a tea tree toothpick
A new song that makes you wanna make music

Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot run away out of the dark

I imagine you back in the cocoon
I know you miss your mummy, you can change your name
No, you didn't get to do everything you wanted to
You leave your body just one more ice cream scoop out of your brain
Pink matter, dark matter, glass shatter
Corporate ladder, cake batter splatter
Patrons saying all this pain

Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out (out)
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot run away out of the dark
