Told Slant
High Dirge
Wet my face in the bathroom
Try and shave off the "he"
That you speak unto "me" if I have to
I can shriek at a pitch more dissonant
Sometimes I have to

Like when I left your apartment
In my shorts and knee high socks
Wet faced, red eyed, and hair tied
Riled up as a beehive

It's a long life, I can't get it right

You can't be whole
When you look inside you'll find more of your problems
And I need you around
Like the ground needs a figure just to be something at all

It's a long life, I can't get it right
It's a long life, I can't get it right
It's a long life, I can't get it right
It's a long life, I can't get it right

It's a long life, it will waste you in return
It's a long life, it will waste you in return
It's a long life, it will waste you in return
It's a long life, it will waste you in return
