about

Originally featured on "Waterbed" (2021) Single

lyrics

I bind myself for solace
and mind the details to be safe.
This time, intoxicated,
I let joy take over my brain.

So wet, my clothes.
So wet, these ropes.
So wet, my lungs.

Help.
Too indistinct.
Help.
No one near me.

This kind of play
I thought it harmless.
Just tied feet and hands by myself.
Now, alarms sounding off.
Not free to snooze.
Not free to breathe.
Panicking in the cold water
while it's taking me under.

So wet, my clothes.
So wet, these ropes.
So wet, my lungs.

The waterbed grows
collecting my bones.
I'm pulled from each post
thinking this wasn't worth it.
The waterbed grows
collecting my bones.
I'm pulled from each post
thinking this wasn't worth it.

This wasn't worth it.
This wasn't worth it.

While I slept, strapped in,
my heels cut the membrane,
split open, and Death sees
as the water keeps flooding in.
Water keeps flooding in.

So wet, my clothes.
So wet, these ropes.
So wet, my lungs.
So it's over.
