lyrics
Time to release the sonic vibe
Where you come out of my skin
I know you’re creeping underneath
Where you can pretend to be just a normal human me
But I know more than what I think
I think I’ve released something out of me
That won’t trap me into contrasting like
This ocean fills my release of information
Like, whatever, I am on top of it
I lose this in the ocean
Fault the water underneath me
Where I can release myself under vagrant help
Where can I resell myself to this hell?
Its got nothing to do with what I think
Its got nothing to do with how I sing
Its got nothing to do with your vagrant smile at me
Give me that Cheshire Cat eye and I can’t leave
So will you bother me? Promise me
Bother me to lobotomy of my own self
Where you come out of my skin
I know you’re creeping underneath
Where you can pretend to be just a normal human me
But I know more than what I think
I think I’ve released something out of me
That won’t trap me into contrasting like
This ocean fills my release of information
Like, whatever, I am on top of it
I lose this in the ocean
Fault the water underneath me
Where I can release myself under vagrant help
Where can I resell myself to this hell?
Its got nothing to do with what I think
Its got nothing to do with how I sing
Its got nothing to do with your vagrant smile at me
Give me that Cheshire Cat eye and I can’t leave
So will you bother me? Promise me
Bother me to lobotomy of my own self
