lyrics

Wherever you go, there you are.

I feel like dogshit and I'm fucking ashamed of it
There's nobody to blame for this, save maybe my covetous
Brain-lust, trust is sustenance, love is a clusterfuck
This world has taught me nothing but not to trust my luck
You're two of the best people I've ever met and you have my blessing
But my heart needs a rest from being afraid of confessing
Jealousy and pain, each breath is numb depressed spite
I had to force myself to eat today, hunger pain felt right
I'm not seeking your attention or being dramatic
God damn it, tell me who I am again and I've had it
I work with what I have and nothing more, friend
Don't talk about my future anymore when you try to mend
If I had a god I'd pray to him that I was happy for you
If there was a devil he'd make me forsake and abhor you
But this is it: three humans, three brains on a stick
I'll believe it, I promise, but something hasn't clicked

There's something gorgeous about the mind
There's something enormous about the blind rush
Of another motherfucker within it with me
To cover the path weather weathered winning or limping
Lifting our feet to our fast-beating heart's rhythm
And leading our simian parts across the algorithm
God damn it woman, man, adult, and child
We're exactly what we need to survive the wild
And you, my twin beloved monkeys in love with each other
You make me sick to my fucking stomach brother
But as long as I live, love, laugh and give back
I'll fight to close the gap and do my best to lack
In fear of interacting with you when you're together
I write on organic tissue paper beat to leather
And if I ever get the feeling that she and I should be we
I'll remember that where I go is where I really ought to be
