Lyrics

Cake

God, I feel like throwing up (on the floor, in the club)
Faded and delirious (knock it back, fill it up)
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, I picked my poison
Holding on until I get high enough, high enough

Let me taste that beautiful nothing
I wanna bury the weight and fix it for now
Fuck the cake, let's go straight to the vodka
We don't ever have to think about the cracks in the machine

Smoke until my legs go numb (upper cut, keep me dumb)
Dress the dread in Valium (drown the voice in the drums)
Love my plastic happy, uncanny valley
Sprinkle me in fairy dust, let 'em out, animal, hm, hm

Let me taste that beautiful nothing
I wanna bury the weight and fix it for now
Fuck the cake, let's go straight to the vodka
We don't ever have to think about the cracks in the machine

Take me out of my body
I wanna live like a God and never come down
All the way to synthetic nirvana
We don't ever have to think about the cracks in the machine

(La, la, la, la-la, la, la)
The cracks in the machine
(La, la, la, la-la, la, la)
