Lyrics
Every fear needs somewhere to live. So look closely. Ten years in a shell I outgrew Holding my breath so the walls stayed smooth Every ugly thing you swore you saw in me Was a mirror with your handwriting honey Crack. Crack. Something's giving Bone-deep, blood warm — I'm still living Look at the color, look at the color on me Wet and gold and terrible and free Left my armor on the kitchen floor New moon, new mood, new shell, new war Look at the color — never guessed this hue Everything soft in me survived you (Molt, molt, molt — watch me) Don't need a couch, don't need a clock at fifty minutes I'm the doctor and the damage and the pen that writes the verdict Diagnosed myself at 3 AM with a paintbrush and a board Turn the wound to wallpaper, turn the scream to a chord Comedy's just tragedy with timing, sweetheart — laugh Crack. Crack. Almost human Peel me slow, slow — I'm still moving Look at the color, look at the color on me Wet and gold and terrible and free Left my armor on the kitchen floor New moon, new mood, new shell, new war Look at the color — never guessed this hue Everything soft in me survived you (Molt, molt, molt — watch me) I open the blinds so you'll see the light Leave the lamp on like a question you can't put down I enter your world. I look around. I leave. And you wait on the lawn like weather You always wait You always, always wait Look at the color, LOOK at the color on me Holy and horrible and finally free Left the whole apartment burning bright New moon, new mood, new skin, new light I was never the monster, darling I was just the part of me you never knew (Molt, molt, molt) Light's on. Door's locked. Just knock. Goodnight.
