Strain

[Verse 1]

Same movie, different actress, quite the theatrics

Yell out, “Cut!” when I’m tired of flinging matches

When no explosion happens, passion passes your gut fast

And you wake up with a girl in a Robitussin mustache

I start to feel like a stalker, the curves of her drive by

And my nerves is too shot to talk to her

I don’t know how to convey it or make you see art

With no control of when our souls are gonna depart

[Hook]

I wanna lay in your stain like a dog

And wear your scent like a shitty gold chain

I wanna lay in your vein like blood

And play you out like a shitty gold chain

I wanna stay in your brain because you’re sane

And that’s enough for me to complain

I wanna cave into pain but it’s too late

Just trying to feel good is a strain

I won’t be mean to you, I won’t be seen with you

I have to talk to you, I wanna walk with you

I have no lights here, I wanna fight with you

I wanna be with you

[Verse 2]

I won’t let you go if you hate me, just don’t amputate me

I won’t try to kill myself today as long as you save me

These drugs are for babies, I’ll manipulate you crazy

Just to get you to crave me

Oxygen navigates through the bloody slice to coagulate it

When a young girl in a tub opened her wrist and traded her life

Her makeup was nice, her letter bold and lead

Folded up under a candle, when opened read

[Hook]

I wanna lay in your stain like a dog

And wear your scent like a shitty gold chain

I wanna lay in your vein like blood

And play you out like a shitty gold chain

I wanna stay in your brain because you’re sane

And that’s enough for me to complain

I wanna cave into pain but it’s too late

Just trying to feel good is a strain

I won’t be mean to you, I won’t be seen with you

I have to talk to you, already stalking you

I have no right to you, I wanna fight with you

I wanna be in you

[Verse 3]

DNA make up the break up, make up with takeout

Doggy bags from the steakhouse

True, a bloody nose will ruin the make out session

She breaks out walking on me, can pull the left-over steaks out

My whole life is a blur

Why is it no matter how many faces switch places it’s still her?

I wish I wasn’t attracted but the mind attaches

Snuck in her parents’ house, stole her old mattress

[Hook]

So I can lay in your stain like a dog

And wear your scent like a shitty gold chain

I wanna lay in your vein like blood

And play you out like a shitty gold chain

I wanna stay in your brain because you’re sane

And that’s enough for me to complain

I wanna cave into pain but it’s too late

Just trying to feel good is a strain

I won’t be mean to you, I won’t be seen with you

I have to talk to you, already stalking you

I have no right to you, I wanna fight with you

I wanna be in you
