Caffeine

Pour shame all over us, harden into a crust
Cement
Forget the glamour and mumble a jackhammer
Under your breath
Hide your face in the curtains
Better unsaid, so close
And it rolls off the tongue, almost

The world expects the pose, perfectly natural
Loosen up
Smearing wet concrete and swearing you'll never be
Caught
At your weakest, etched in stone
And we're frozen here, peeking
Almost, sweet talk, caffeine

Make contact
Up to my neck
I confess in quicksand

"But it's so easy for you
Yeah, there's always one thing
Do you have something to tell me?
Say something
Anything"

I'm warning you
I'm warning you
I'm fucking you
I'm warning you

"Relax, it's just a phase
You'll grow out of it"

Believe anything anyone ever tells you
It's not funny anymore
It's the thing you hate the most
The thing you hate the most
The thing you hate almost
