"Watch Me Go" lyrics
Here we go again
Bitten, bolting from a stale death
Head back, neck broke
Running while I gasp, choke
Chasing myself with a hammer in a hailstorm
Sorry surgeon, nervous nurse on call
Cold glass of water, lick the droplets off the rim
Dust rises gently off the vinyl as it spins
You love me for a minute then the lights flicker dim
I was witnessing, observant and you hated me for it
First, then forced, you were canvassing your stay
Begging us to blend was exhausting and obtuse
I thought that our love would feel like warm repatriation
It ended up an ambush launching rocks through my roof
Squeeze my heart just to hate it's sound
I'm a talker, nobody's going to shut my mouth
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
So whatever let it be
Surrender, surrender to thee
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
Dry-aired plane, another town, new view
Blood rush to the head cause I'm holding in a scream
Why invoke devotion you then said you didn't need
So reckless, unabashed, change your mind so callously
I'll not know why and you're too busy buried in a bag
In a sea of others, lip to lip and hand to hand
You want to disappear
I want to talk the night to day
To let my tongue forge understanding
Saturate the grey
Fear, fever, fermentation of our own fruits
I curled in on myself and then I numbed it with solution
Each forever turned to never then back into cahoots
My love dilutes in anger
I am buried in it's ruin
Squeeze my heart just to hate it's sound
I'm a talker, nobody's going to shut my mouth
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
So whatever let it be
Surrender, surrender to thee
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
I can't pick the lock of a door soaked in shame
My words spark fires, old varnish aflame
I'm always saying too much and of too much I'm ashamed
It's only harm for harms sake whatever truth might negate
I know our ruptures were the natural course
That we're rough and being smoothed by the rivers black flow
But was I just a briar that your sleeve was snagged on
Did you really love me?
Was it real at all?
Squeeze my heart just to hate it's sound
I'm a talker, nobody's going to shut my mouth
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
So whatever let it be
Surrender, surrender to thee
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me (watch me)
Squeeze my heart just to hate it's sound
I'm a talker (I'm a talker, I'm a talker)
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
So whatever let it be
Surrender, surrender to thee
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me (watch me) go
Bitten, bolting from a stale death
Head back, neck broke
Running while I gasp, choke
Chasing myself with a hammer in a hailstorm
Sorry surgeon, nervous nurse on call
Cold glass of water, lick the droplets off the rim
Dust rises gently off the vinyl as it spins
You love me for a minute then the lights flicker dim
I was witnessing, observant and you hated me for it
First, then forced, you were canvassing your stay
Begging us to blend was exhausting and obtuse

It ended up an ambush launching rocks through my roof
Squeeze my heart just to hate it's sound
I'm a talker, nobody's going to shut my mouth
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
So whatever let it be
Surrender, surrender to thee
Mend what's broken
Kiss, cut, sew
The stars overhead they will watch me go
