"God Figure" lyrics

Every time I see a thirty-seven in a significant way
It means something bad's about to happen

"You're not so wise and self-reflective as much as you're dependent"
That's what he says to me
You need a God figure to mend you, a stronger force to check you
When you get out of hand

He says bruises keep me clean
I think it's so kind of him to make it hard to breathe
And sometimes he makes me say please
Before he sinks his teeth, isn't that sweet?

At least I stay on course doing what I'm told
I'm walking it so close
At least I stay on course doing what I'm told
I'm walking it so close

I need your mantle of protection
No matter what's inflicted, I know that you're the one
I'll keep on giving in forever
Although it's hard to weather, it brings me to relief

He says bruises keep me clean
I think it's so kind of him to make it hard to breathe
And sometimes he makes me say please
Before he sinks his teeth, isn't that sweet?

At least I stay on course doing what I'm told
I'm walking it so close
At least I stay on course doing what I'm told
I'm walking it so close

Don't you go and praise yourself
You can't get bored being so unwell
We're leaning off this balcony
You can't ignore that you wanna fall (That you wanna fall)

At least I stay on course doing what I'm told (He says bruises keep me clean, I think it's so kind of him)
I'm walking it so close (To make it hard to breathe)
At least I stay on course doing what I'm told (And sometimes he makes me say please before he sinks his teeth)
I'm walking it so close (Isn't that sweet?)

At least I stay on course doing what I'm told (He says bruises keep me clean)
I'm walking it so close (I think it's so kind of him to make it hard to breathe)
