MY PET TERATOMA

Lyrics

I scrape my head off the bathroom floor
Its 5am I’m in a crumpled ball
I must get up to get knocked back down
This life’s become too habitual

Corporate, suited up
By day I’m not degenerate
I’m a cog, well machined
But inside I’m rusting

I shake my head just to stay awake
I don’t help myself, I’ve not slept in days
I’d get in bed but its no longer safe
It’s filled with dread and my nightmare's wraiths

Corporate, Suited up
By day a phoney idiot
I’m a cog, greased and slick
But living this lie’s making me sick

I take my meds just to keep me straight
I break my heart just to get a break
I’d give it up if there was another way
I’d only fuck it up just like everything

Corporate, Suited up
Together and unrepentant
I’m a cog, oiled and clean
But inside I’m dying
None of this, its not me
Its not who I’m meant to be
Its an act I’m living
When I should be a human being

None of this, its not me
Its not who I’m meant to be
Its an act I’m living
When I should be a human being
All of this, its not me
Its not who I’m meant to be
Its an act I’m living
When I should be a human being
