“Morbid Obsessions” was initially released as a single that later appeared on We Are The Union’s fifth studio album Ordinary Life.
Its release was in tandem with WATU member Reade Wolcott coming out as a trans woman and covers issues one might face when discovering their gender identity.
[Chorus]
Let go of these morbid obsessions
Every thought feels like a confession
She said, she said, she said
"If I get one life, gonna do what I want
If I get one life, I'm gonna do what I want" (Oh)
[Verse 1]
She was a mess
She was a mess at seventeen
Running down a dream
Stuck in this endless empty feeling
Give it a rest
Give it a rest chasing the girls around
Her lonely heart was a ghost town
They said, "Son, you better settle down"
[Chorus]
And let go of these morbid obsеssions
Every thought feels like a confession
Shе said, she said, she said
"If I get one life, gonna do what I want
If I get one life, I’m gonna do what I want" (Oh)
[Verse 2]
Now in come the drugs
In come the drugs and the booze
Razors, wrists, and self-abuse
Trapped like a rat, got nothing left to lose
She wanted a dress
Like all the other girls
A head full of curls
They said, "Son, you can't always get what you want in this world"
[Chorus]
Let go of these morbid obsessions
Every thought feels like a confession
She said, she said, she said
"If I get one life, gonna do what I want
If I get one life, I'm gonna do what I want"
[Bridge]
Woah
A heart of glass, a head of stone
Woah
A head of stone (Woah)
[Chorus]
Let go of these morbid obsessions (A heart of glass, a head of stone)
Every thought feels like a confession (Woah, a head of stone)
She said, she said, she said
"If I get one life, gonna do what I want
If I get one life, I’m gonna do what I want" (Woah)
"I'm gonna do what I want
If I get one life, I'm gonna do what I want" (Woah)
Want, want
