woods ii

Fireworks

Mosquitoes pull blood through my clothes
Just like pavement did to yours
I remember afterwards
Grown men begged me to give my life to the lord

I watched two die in, in July
Then one born in the winter time
She took the life from all three
And put it back into me
Put it back into me

It's not my world, not my world
Not my world, not my world
It always just felt forced to me

I've been everywhere
And I felt nothing there
Never did what young men were supposed to do
Got in a van instead of Pittsburgh for art school

I watched two die in, in July
And one born in the winter time
She took the life from all three
And put it back into me
Put it back into me

It's not my world, not my world
Not my world, not my world
It always just felt forced to me
I promise I won't take you with me

I let it win just like my parents did
Trauma sucks chemicals
Human voids that will never be filled

It's not my world, not my world
Not my world, not my world
It always just felt forced to me
