"I'll Still Destroy You" lyrics

"I'll Still Destroy You"

It's so easy to set off
The molecules and the caplets
They all have something against me
Nothing I do makes me feel different

This one's like your sister's best friends
In a bath calling you to join them
Can't avoid them
This one's like your mother's arms
When she was young and sunburned in the '80s
It lasts forever

The more level they have me
The more I cannot stand me
I have helpless friendships
And bad taste in liquids

This one's like the wilderness
Without the world, I'm gonna miss those long nights
With the windows open
I keep re-reading the same lines
Always up at 5am every morning
Like a baby

It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on

I have no possessions
No point of view or vision
I'm just trying to stay in touch with
Anything I'm still in touch with

The sky is getting white
I can't find a lighter anywhere, I'm going crazy
But I'm not crazy
Put your heels against the wall
I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you
I'll still destroy you

It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on
