lyrics

I wonder to myself
All these little snippets of my memory
Are they cuts and bruises of a former me
Will they somehow surface when I'm volatile
Calling my inner child

Take it slow
Removing the thorns
Hold me close
Stop me from shaking
Overdose
I have to come down solo

What does it take
Dirty lines on my face
What does it take
Dirty blood on my face

Just another version of the girl I knew
A broken record spinning slow and out tune
No volume on this secret being amplified
I wanna run and hide

Take it slow
Removing the thorns
Hold me close
Stop me from shaking
Overdose
I have to come down solo

F for the way I used to feel
A plus for effort
R for real

O my god
U were a hot mess
T for the things time forgets

Take it slow
Hold me close
