lyrics

If I can't comprehend myself then why should anybody else?
I ask the answering machine
And each time I call, you think there's something wrong
Because there's something wrong
I used to never forget when you said, "Eric, I'm right here."
And I used to never wake up at 6am but I'm right here

And right then, you belong to no one
Not me nor yourself
I see it in everyone I meet
I see what's been fractured inside me in everyone I meet
To see potential to be intangible to no one but me

But why is it that no matter how long I drive,
I end up at the same water and rocks near Bayside?
And tell me exactly what's keeping me from testing the terrain
And to ravage my body
Drown my lungs + car with
Clothes still on me

But there's a spot beneath the rocks
Where my eyes peek through to
watch the sun cut through my clouds like a pocket knife
Pastel sky, stretch yourself above for my whole life
I know the hardest part is opening up because I can't for anyone
/
Bite hard onto what you know
Swim up for air
Mouth me slow
Body temperature rise
The black around your eyes matches
The black that covers mine
I want to sip from every part of you
I want to rinse my mouth with every part of you
