Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna cry in your t-shirt ever again
And my anger was a compliment
Like how your brain works
Magical thinkers trying to be friends
Tried to let you forget me but my Celtic cross was heavy
When it hit your fucking teeth
I'm sorry you felt undermined
Now I'm trying to make a racket in the back of your mind
[Chorus]
Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot want our way out of the dark
[Verse 2]
I've got agency
But imagine me
Lying naked in your lap
Before a gathering of screaming fans
I'm your guitar, mute me gently with the palm of your hand
So self-conscious, awareness just a catalyst
I'm scared, I close my eyes and picture this
Summer corn and a tea-tree toothpick
A new song that makes you wanna make music
[Chorus]
Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot want our way out of the dark
[Bridge]
I imagine you
Back in the cocoon
I know you miss your mommy, you can change your name
I know you didn't get to do everything you wanted to
You leave your body
Just one more ice cream scoop out of your brain
Pink matter, dark matter, glass shattered, corporate ladder
Cake batter, splatter paint, patron saint, all this pain
[Chorus]
Try to wait the night out
Try to keep the light out
Only the moon left to outsmart
We cannot want our way out of the dark
