"Aries (Moth Song)" lyrics

"Aries (Moth Song)"

You flew around
Where my light goes
And you're chewing holes
In all my clothes

I let you out
Thought you'd go home
But you said your home
Is where I go

Am I precious or just delicate?
Born with bargain-basement bones
And you know that

When your white blood cells
Can't count on you
Know they'll come for you soon
You're numb, but not immune

You think fondly of the times
We burned smilies on our thighs
Safe where no one else could see them
Just as long as you saw mine
Just as long as you saw mine

You hold out hope
Put stock in star signs
With a telescope
To see if you're right

A product of pity sex
But a miracle no less
You said you're not even that scary
Wouldn't have pinned you as an Aries
I guess

When your white blood cells
Can't count on you
Know they'll come for you soon
You're numb, but not immune

You think fondly of the times
We burned smilies on our thighs
Safe where no one else could see them
Just as long as you saw mine
Just as long as you saw mine

You connect my dots
And my beauty spots
'Til you're seeing stars
Wherever I could not

Made out a little spoon
Said it's just like you
A constellation curse
Waning phase honeymoon
Gone too soon

Trying to look
More like my skeleton
I'd do anything to show
We're not so different

When you drink to drown
In your own puke
I'll breathe life back into you
There's nothing I wouldn't do

And when I leave, you're so confused
A baby in the other room
I'll just pretend like I don't hear you
But we both know I always do
We both know I always do
