Just because I love your skin
Doesn't mean I'll jump in
The water's clean, and warm, and green
I'm not allowed to swim
I'm scared of getting in
Batteries and holy ghosts
Buried in my bag of bones
She said, "They would help me to grow"
Said feeding the stomach is feeding the soul
And spider web, and harlequin
Wrapped around your sticky wings
It's pretty, but it's hurting like hell
'Cause I know that I'm unwell
My body's made of shell
And I know that you can tell
Beat me at my own damn game
Fuckin' with my god-damn brain
Now, I will never win again
Better to love than to have and to hold
And I heard that you like to swim
Doesn't mean I'm gonna jump in
But I'll put on my swimming set
'Cause I know I'm going to get wet
I know I'm going to get wet
I know I'm going to get wet
Just because I love your skin
Doesn't mean I'll jump in
The water's clean, and warm, and green
I'm not allowed to swim
I'm scared of getting in
