lyrics

i need a god more than a crush
i love myself when no one does
she says she smokes the way she breathes
does that mean fast and next to me?

does that mean fast unfastening?
doesn't this seem less frustrating?
to see you smile, through the steam
condense against my skin and drip right off of me

i found a god he lives inside
the honest tasks yeah that's right
i worship dishes, kiss the floor
my heart exists to restore
the balance of this hellish place
can you believe they make us pay?
can you believe they make us pay?
