come inside the atmosphere is dying
the irreality of the dream makes the walls feel uncanny
signals in one eye and out the other
a gay man with a fetish for a cop
a rich man with a strangle ready knot
a poor boy dreams of myth and robot
step up kid give it a shot
a gay man with a fetish for a cop
a rich man with a strangle ready knot
a poor boy dreams of myth and robot
step up kid give it a shot
step up kid give it a shot
step up kid give it a shot
step up kid give it a shot
step up kid give it a shot

it started on her nose
it got a little blistered
i said it started on her nose
it got a little blistered
it started on her eyelids
it got up to her eyes
they got a litte redder
they got a little swollen
oh but no one says a word
but no one says a word
it spread down to her lips
cracked and torn and shredded and
the air can't touch them
they can't touch each other
so how can she talk?
so how can she talk?
well she talks like this:
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh
eh uh uh eyuh uh eh uh eh
but no one says a word
no one says a word
no one says a word
oh but no one says a word
started in her ears
leaking dirt everywhere
they feel separate from the rest of her head
she's just nearly gone deaf
it started in her neck
it got a little tighter
it got little tight tight tight tighter
so tight tight tight tighter
so tight tight tight tighter
it got a little tighter
yeah it got a little tighter
and it got a little tighter
when her face began to swell
but nobody would tell
that it hurts to hug her
her skin is sandpaper, and green
her nails are brittle
they chip they crack they fall to the floor
it spreads down her fingers
it spreads down her arms
and now it's deep in her lungs
a-cough cough cough cough
she says
a-cough cough cough cough
she says
and they smile
and they laugh
they smile
and they laugh
cause everything is cool
yeah everything is fine
she just lost her eyes
but everything is fine
it's cool man
no worries
it's cool man
no worries
it's cool man
it started on her eyelids
reddened and swollen
closing in on her vision
no one said a word
so she went home
she cooked herself a tray
watched an episode and read a chapter
and lights out on that first day
the sun rose a little later
skin on her nose is peeling
her lips are split, blistered
but everything is fine
so she ran an errand
said hello, gave the man the money
he said “here's your change”
she said "cough cough cough cough cough cough
ah-a ah-a ah-a ah-a ah-a ah-a yeah"

they're looking at my throat throat
they're looking at me up down
they say okay how are you

breeze me
just a leaf on the street me
oh please just try to convince me
that i'm blowing somewhere
freeze me
i'm a sheet on a dying sea
won't the sun please just recussitate me
while i'm floating out here
twenty inches in her shoulder
there's a rock in her throat
her lip's a little peachy
her handwriting is a joke
her gloves won't fit
her shoes won't fit
her dress won't fit
she's got no tits
eye liner on her bottom lid
lip stick on her chin
fifteen layers of blush
seeping deep in her skin
she doesn't want to tuck
she doesn't like to fuck
catcalled by the dirty mutts
enough is enough
enough is enough
enough is enough
enough is enough
enough is enough
breeze me
just a leaf on the street me
oh please just try to convince me
that i am blowing somewhere
freeze me
i'm a sheet on a dying sea
won't the sun please just recussitate me
while i'm floating out here
take what is never given
live a life worth living
take what is never given
live a life worth living
she's doing it baby, she's doing it
you're doing it baby, you're doing it
she's beautiful baby, she's doing it
she's beautiful baby, she's doing it
she's doing it baby, she's doing it
you're doing it baby, you're doing it
she's beautiful baby, she's doing it
she's beautiful baby, she's doing it
you're beautiful baby, yeah, you're doing it
and you're alive already and I love you and-
breeze me
just a leaf on the street me
oh please just try to convince me
that i am blowing somewhere
freeze me
i'm a sheet on a dying sea
won't the sun please just recussitate me
when i'm floating out here
