lyrics

Cold sweat, from a dead sleep
I woke up with a nose bleed
red stains on the bed sheets
Each tick of the heartbeat
And I taste battery acid
I stumbled to the bathroom
Washed clean like a baptist
And my brain feels like a vacuum

go back to the crime scene
you’ll say this is madness
But I know what the signs mean
It’s an inkblot, it's a Rorschach in the bloodstains on the mattress

Anna Freud made me paranoid cause I can’t avoid defenses
But I sick of being pensive, My consciousness is fried
And daring youth bulletproof, But um coming to my senses
I was born to sit on fences
Oh nothings cut and dry

Cold sweat, from a dead sleep
I woke up with a nose bleed
Cold night I was Nineteen
And I should be home in jersey
But I came back after new years
In my dorm room made of concrete
Cause of some sick resolution
That there’s honor in being lonely

Anna Freud made me paranoid Kissed off adolescence
And I woke up to an ambulance the morning bowie died
And I spent that week at open mics, to wrestle the depression
Ch ch ch ch changes are incessant
Oh nothings cut and dry

Cold sweat, from a dead sleep
I woke up with a nose bleed
Inkblot on the bed Sheet
I’m scared to death, the stain looks just like me
+
Am I’m sick of who I am
and sick of who I meant to be
Holden fucking Caufield of the 21st century

Anna Freud got me paranoid that I’m hostage to my musing
Cause I keep on living chapters from Catcher in the Rye
Solitudes an opiate, one I’ve tried to kick abusing
I know I’ll keep on using
Oh nothings cut and dry
