Kid Again! (Demo)

I touch her teeth and tremble because I can't trust or gather
That gift horses don't hold demons it's the season for them rather
than fall in the arms of optomism, I clutch and cuddle mazes
Run my fingers through it's corridors, your corners, turns and phrases
Turn the corner now I'm gone
Into your arms and this song
Why's everyone calling me kid again
when I just became the mother of all that is infinite?
Why's everyone calling me kid again
when I just found out I'm the father whose destined to eat your flesh
I love your blood between my teeth
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
And I spoke your name in secret as I kissed you in a dream land
Just before god spoke us into life, she put my hand in your hand
and said we must write and tandem dream to find a home together
learn to change and grow apart I know I said our fate has ever-destinted
us to entertain
Cosmic laughter fills my brain
Cause I crack up with the heavens at my pain
Why's everyone calling me kid again
When I just became the mother of all that is infinite
Why's everyone calling me kid again
When I just found out I'm the father whose destined to eat your flesh
I love your blood between my teeth
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
I love your blood
If life's a palindrome that starts and ends the same
and we picked out each other's clothes
and brightened up each other's flames
then avid divas we are surely meant to be
We can be our best at our worst today
We'll only thrive with age
Why's everyone calling me kid again
When I just became the mother of all that is infinite
Why's everyone calling me kid again
When I just found out I'm the father whose destined to eat your flesh
I love your blood between my teeth

Silence is golden but I had to go in
the darkest depths of the world
Just to see your diamond thoughts
and yeah it hurt a lot
But this mine is so priceless it just can't be bought
So we could keep quiet
But no one would buy it
That we're doing just fine
Cause how could this be so
When we're dying in Sacramento
But miles away
We'll have lively moments and live better days
Cause if we hurt the ones we love
You must not like me very much
If we hurt the ones we love
Then you must have another crush
If we hurt the ones we love
You must not like me very much
My masochistic tendencies are telling me
It's never gonna last
Well love is a villian
and I actually fell in
and how dare you push me over
Cause these amphetamines
make fallin' so easy
Says this yellow bracelet that they put on me
Been missin' for three days
I borrowed back the blades
I left in your heart 'fore the took me away
That's why you're bleeding out
Your veins pump only doubt
Swapped your blood for mine
I owe you some oxygen, some youth, and some time
Cause if we hurt the ones we love
You must not like me very much
If we hurt the ones we love
Then you must have another crush
If we hurt the ones we love
You must not like me very much
My masochistic tendencies
Are tellin' me
It's never gonna
If we hurt the ones we love
I've never felt like this before
If we hurt the ones we love
Then you're the one that I adore
If we hurt the ones we love
You must not like me very much
My masochistic tendencies
Are telling me
It's never gonna last

Did you see me last night
Did you see me online
Maybe if you scroll back
You can like it this time
My favorite thing about you
is you don't look at your phone
and see now we're apart
and I'm feeling so lonely
Face to face
Ear to ear
How I feared
Meeting your sweet gaze
I regret being digital
Cause I'm in love with an analog lover
Regret being digital
Cause I'm in love
Oh I'm in love
You only see my tired side
You're in the dark to vibrance
No supernormal stimuli
Content to sit in silence
I airbrush edit my facade
And all my friends believe it
Please follow suit and fill my heart
Or at least lurk
Face to face
Ear to ear
How I feared
Meeting your sweet gaze
I regret being digital
Cause I'm in love with an analog lover
Regret being digital
Cause I'm in love
Oh I'm in love
I create planned obscolesense
but wanna live forever
and you're okay with slow decay
cause it makes your world better
I feel your skin through plasma, glass
We're virtual, not pretend
You asked if androids have wet dream
and I said yes!
Face to face
Ear to ear
How I feared
Meeting your sweet gaze
I regret being digital
Cause I'm in love with an analog lover
Regret being digital
Cause I'm in love
Oh I'm in love

You built a home inside the mouth of hell
and it's the nicest place you've ever lived
and when you're walking to the corner store
your neighbors follow and insist
that they're devils worth dealing with
but you think that it's a myth cause
You don't play their favorite songs
and when they ask you how you're doing
there's always something wrong
Why do you ask us to do your bidding
when you think there's no chance of winning?
The beast of burden's crying in the yard
and of all the sweet girls you've made cry
she echoes in your head so shamefully
you had to make blood sacrifice
to keep your unity alive
what a cruel thing to decide cause
when we look back at the cold dark north
we'll see passivity and all that it brough forth
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
You built a home inside the mouth of hell, yeah
You sang a song that I loved with all my heart
but if I was 21
you'd tear this revolver apart
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
You built a home inside the mouth of hell
Hell, hell, hell, hell

No stars in your eyes
Aircrafts ignore my plea
Wasting all of my wishes and hopes
but I still get what's coming to me
I sang in perfect pitch
until you changed the key
now I'm locked outside of your heart
and it's dark out on the street
How could someone so dishonest feel like the truth?
Am I banking on my future or just wasting my youth?
My hands made to embrace
My tongue so I can taste
My lungs to breathe you in
My eyes to see your face
My fists they poud away
My heart keeps me insane
God only knows what hold back the tears
In my voice while I say:
How could someone so dishonest feel like the truth?
Am I banking on my future or just wasting my youth?
My love says "ce' la vie"
and then it kisses me
It holds me in its arms
and whispers sweet to me:
"When saturn dims our door
to weigh my heart and yours,
let's bear our rough skin
and let her love in,
a perfect paramour."
How could someone so dishonest feel like the truth?
am I banking on my future or just wasting my youth?
or just wasting my youth
I'm just wasting my youth
Oh youth is just one small-town exit on the long road back
home where you and I belong and this is the soundtrack

The flesh of your spirit's been infected by the bad times
and your daydreams they are powered by the steam that I instill
How does that make your mother feel
as she taps out the rhythm of the sewing needle
stitching up the battle scars and cuts
from the double-edged sword that was our love?
I wish our friends could talk over the love we found that day
I wish those pills taking sad lives instead could make our loved ones stay
Oh I need to stop making wishes on the stars in other people's eyes
Cause if they're not falling for me, well then I'm just praying to vacant satellites
And I've smoked a million spirits as I've sat here longing, wishing
cause there's no eternal sunshine, my minds anything but spotless
It's littered with the image of your promises and lies
I swear I'll always love you though you're miserable and thoughtless, oh.
Well your fertilized soil only gave me weeds
I let 'em take root in my flower bed
I let them massacre my heart and head
and they loved me better than you ever did, oh
I wish the things that gave us life were easier to see
I hope you always remember all bliss stems from catastrophe
I need to stop making wishes on the stars in other people's eyes
Cause if they're not falling for me well then I'm just praying to vacant satellites
No I don't want a lover that I have to call
I don't want a lover that I have to call
Unempathetic
Unempathetic, oh I
don't want a lover on a pedestal
cause I always knock 'em down feelin' like a fool
it's so pathetic
It's so pathetic, oh
I don't want a lover that I have to call
No I don't want a lover that I have to call
I don't want a lover
That I have to call, oh
I don't want a lover
I don't want a lover
I don't want a lover
I don't want a lover, mmmm

I wanted to prove to you that yes, I could do magic
that sometimes I have energy, not all my songs are tragic
but I'm too obsessed with lying in bed
I would wake up with the sun, make you breakfast,
make you come and follow me on my bike to pass my driver's test downtown
but I'm too obsessed with lying in bed
WAIT sweetie, where you goin'? I don't wanna be alone and
I know I'm not too ambitious and your skin looks so delicous
so don't try today, come lie in bed
Mean hands
fluorescent eyes
I want your body more than you want mine
Sag moon
Sacrament prayer
You leave the wine behind and bring the bread to my lair
Yeah, we're eating bread in bed, yeah
I wish you were on my level
I don't want to unchain this devil
Long gone, we laugh, the moon and me
Living up a reoccouring teenage dream
Drunk on a reocourring teenage dream
Scared by a reoccouring teenage dream
Oh kissed, bruised, good news
Smitten summer under covers
Naked psyche, like you high-key
Bright-eyed baby, sad, but maybe
we'll find time to lie in bed
Cause we put in all the work and we brushed off all the dirt
From our shoulders into garden beds and wear the growth upon our heads
Yeah we blush, we bloom, we lie in bed
No Gods
Recovery
Control your caustic heart but not with me
Binge love
Midheavens meet
"As above, so below" awake or asleep, ooh
Hope you see what I mean soon

We live in a world where forever's never part of the deal
and I'm gonna comfort you at night cause I know how you feel
We can't walk through that door again and say "thank god I'm home"
We're distant but we'll stay up all night talkin'
about how we hate sleeping alone
I'm gonna take some dental floss and sew my damn mouth shut
If my head needed bashing in I never would have said this much
I'm sorry if I said too much
Well I forgot how this night ends
But I know how it begins, it starts with you and me
Cause don't it always?
And you taste like gin and I taste like cigarettes
and we'll both be home this time tomorrow
So give me a shot to compliment this drag
Give me a shot and you won't be disappointed
We live in a world where forever's never part of the deal
and you'll never write another song cause you're too scared to feel
your lover's disapproval or your father's neglect,
the warm air from the words I breathe, this chilly night or self-respect
I'm gonna take my bass guitar and smash open your head
and dig through all the bottled up emotions laying them across my bed
then I'll put them into words so your band can have a new song
It's mattress, squire, sacrificed
I thought I saw it in your eyes
Pursued it through your body all night
but found no way to make a love song about me
but I've got one for you, I hope that's okay
and it goes like:
You taste like gin and I taste like cigarettes
and we'll both be home this time tomorrow
So give me a shot to compliment this drag
Give me a shot and you won't be disappointed
Everybody now:
You taste like gin and an angel flicked her cigarette while I was smoking mine outside
and she said she'd answer my prayers but I could only think to wish for you
and she said you're not the one for me but that's no surprise
Cause I'm only in love with everything
and you think that you're nothing
