Hell

Lyrics

Hell

[Verse 1]

I wanna be decent

Even if nothing else

I wanna be decent

Oh, bouncer in the sky

Let me in, I'm scared to die

[Verse 2]

You'll hold yourself hostage

Keeping your secrets straight

I know you're exhausted

But you can't count yourself to sleep

Two-thousand three hundred sheep

[Chorus]

Nobody else decides the way we

Scurry around this hell

You're coming to find the difference, baby

Is I can live with myself

[Verse 3]

Looks like you made it

Somebody'd be so proud

But you isolatеd

Alienate your friends

'Causе they're just a means to an end

[Chorus]

Nobody else decides the way we

Scurry around this hell

You're coming to find the difference, baby

Written by Snail Mail

Produced by Aron Kobayashi-Ritch

Is I can live with myself

[Bridge]

Are you wasted

Being on your own

Too busy getting faded

That's why you can't pick up the phone

I know there's no going back now

I think I'd still do it over

I know there's no going back now

I think I'd still do it over

[Chorus]

Nobody else decides the way we

Scurry around this hell

You're coming to find the difference, baby

Is I can live with myself

Nobody else decides the way we

Scurry around this hell

You're coming to find the difference, baby

Is I can live with myself

And I can live with myself
