[Verse 1]
Are you free tonight to watch The O.C.?
This is protocol
I need you here beside me
I've been paralysed for more than a week
But don't let it scare you
This is fairly routine

[Chorus]
Soon, I'll break out this cocoon
And take the car out for the night
We'll play cassettes
Share cigarettes out in the half-light
Maybe, I'll blossom into something twice as bright
Lie-de-die
Lie-de-die
Lie-de-die

[Post-Chorus]
I'm just going through something
Uh-huh
I'm just going through something
Uh-huh

[Verse 2]
Are you free tonight to help pass the evening?
We'll drink our body weight
'Till we forget our feelings
I'll be swimming in the pools of your fragrance
When you're in proximity, I'm totally weightless
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I've become a taxidermy version of myself
The laundry's piling up
The plants are dying on the shelf
You said you'd give me both your kidneys
If I cried for help
Like Jesus Christ, calm down

[Chorus]
Soon, I'll break out this cocoon
And take the car out for a drive
We'll play cassettes
Share cigarettes out in the half-light
Maybe, I'll blossom into something you might like
Lie-de-die
Lie-de-die
Lie-de-die

[Post-Chorus]
I'm just going through something
Uh-huh
I'm just going through something
Uh-huh

[Outro]
I'm just going through something
Going through something
Uh-huh
