[Verse 1]
You're moving through rough waters
Motel boy
And swimming in your sleep
How could I be so blind, mis-sighted
Not to see there's something wounded deep
Anyone could scratch your surface now
It's all amphetamine
You're blasting yourself into the present
To blur some past indignity, say that
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that
You hate it
You want to re-create it
[Chorus]
I've been around, I've been your lover
I let it go at k** Devil Hills
You're coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel
[Verse 2]
You're drinking raw adrenal baby
And do-si-do, saddo
You're eating cartilage, shark-eyes, shark-heart
All present tense
Boy, your blood is running cold
Listen! This is now, this is here
This is me, this is what I wanted
You to see
That was then, that was that
That is gone, that is past
You cast yourself, cast
Pa**ed by, thrown down fast, you say
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You love it
You hate it
You want to re-create it
Now! This is here, this is me
This is what I wanted you to see
That was then, that was that
That is gone, that is what
I wanted you to feel
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus][x3]
