lyrics

don’t give yourself any meaning through me
like there is anything to be saved from
& like i have a frame of reference, a frame of mind left that isn’t broken

‘cause i don’t wanna hear it

& don’t say disillusionment, melodrama, arrogance, life
to me anymore
‘cause i’m not looking & i’m not seeing
& i’m not hurting

& i don’t wanna hear it

& don’t give me anything
like you’re doing it for me
like i’m sincere
like you could somehow know
don’t say drugs, depression, culture
like i don’t like hurtin’ myself
like i’ve used those excuses and meant them

‘cause i don’t wanna hear it

just tell me it’s different
tell me you agree
tell me you don’t understand
a word
i’ve said
& smile

or just lie there & try not to lie to yourself
just stop talking
& i’ll be there
lying right back
