lyrics

An awakening as dawn breaks
Fresh-eyed, wide open
I’ve mistaken the shape the body takes
With its veins unwoven

It’s a case of common uncertainty
Caught in the little ghosts
And this empty room let’s them haunt me
When I wanted you the most

My organs, my bones
Let them burst apart like battered piñata
I’m still mourning the ghost of something that never was
Not at all, not at all
And I knew what I ought to do
But I grew too small

A deafening as dusk falls
Blurry-eyed and closed off
And it threatens me with its pitfalls
Trips me up and throws me off

And yes, I’ll have another
Caught up in the alcohol
And this crowded room pulls me under
Did I even want you at all?

My organs, my bones
Let them burst apart like battered piñata
I’m still mourning the ghost of something that never was
Not at all, not at all
And I knew what I ought to do
But I grew too small

Could’ve made it easier on me
Couldn’t you have spelt it out, spelt it out?
Could’ve made it easier on me
But I grew too small
Yes, I grew too small

Could’ve made it easier on me
Couldn’t you have spelt it out, spelt it out?
Could’ve made it easier on me
But I grew too small

And I used to act impulsively
So I could claim I didn't think it through
Well, now it's got the best of me
Look what I got my myself into

My organs, my bones
Let them burst apart like battered piñata
I’m still mourning the ghost
Of something that never was, not at all, not at all

My organs, my bones
Could've made it easier on me
On the little ghosts
Couldn't you have spelt it out, spelt it out?
But I grew too small
