my skin’s been really bad
awful and porus, disgusting and worthless
if i dont touch them they bleed
when i do touch them they bleed
my skin’s been really bad,
discoloured and sickly, wretched and ugly
if i dont touch them they bleed
when i do touch them i cry
my skin makes me depressed
scared to leave these walls for the thought of being stressed
from the marks they leave when bled
for the scars i can’t forget
my skin makes me depressed
a constant reminder of my state of distress
so i chose that i can’t care less
and i hate myself
i have acne
dont pretend that you cant see
i have acne
when will i look like an adult
my face is sore to touch
red and swollen, filled with puss
if i dont touch them they stay
when i do touch them they scar
my face is sore to touch
it hurts to look and its just my luck
when i dont touch them they scar
and i hate myself
i have acne
dont pretend that you cant see
i have acne
when will i look like an adult
i have acne
dont pretend that you cant see
i have acne
just say that its ugly

lone tree with no fruits to bear
reminds me of my limited capacity to care
watchful crow with piercing eyes
has a sense of comfort in knowing and i'm jealous cos i can't read your mind
i wish i was extra ordinary but i'm just ordinary
i can't bear my ordinariness but its a fate we must all accept
barbed wire meets the sky
a bashful reunion, a calling to action, an unreadable sign
an image of grace as you drive endlessly
say i'm the greatest girl you've had the fortune of loving
i wish i was extra ordinary but i'm just ordinary
i can't bear my ordinariness but its a fate we must all accept
i wish i was extra ordinary but i'm just ordinary
i can't bear my ordinariness, i tried my best to impress you
do i depress you?
i want to impress you,
infect you.
i wish i was extra ordinary but i'm just ordinary
i can't bear my ordinariness but its a fate we must all accept
i wish i was extra ordinary but i'm just ordinary
i can't bear my ordinariness, i tried my best to impress you

you’ve gone away for a week and i’m not sure how i will cope
yes it sounds dramatic but the symptoms have started to show
i fear this social isolation will cause greater desperation and i dont have the stamina for times like these
all my friends have fled the city and i wish i could too
they say they miss me but from inside my heads misconstrued
i fear this social isolation and internal reflection
my emotions can’t handle times like these
if you wanna say it just say it
if you cant say it just say it
go on and say it please say it
if you can say it just say it
i dont like all these decisions that have suddenly appeared
an immeasurable distance, the unknown’s what i fear
i hate this social isolation and my brain cant even function
my heart can’t handle times like these
we waited so long for a confirmation of our arrest
now that they've announced it my feelings have not been put to rest
i hate this social isolation and the pressure on production
how do we push through times like these?
if you wanna say it just say it
if you cant say it just say it
go on and say it please say it
if you can say it just say it

you know that i got it
everything you want and
baby trust my promise, we could be
everything i needed
boy just take the lead and
don't you know you matter to me
i know that you got it babe
but i've got to stop it babe
before i cry i'll walk away
when you hurt me
it is so sweet but
i've never felt so lonely
and its all the same
when you go i stay
i've been here before
you've been here before.
all the places i've been
all the ones that you've seen
maximise our distance
we can't be
everything i needed
baby please just leave it
if you don't understand it
well, thats just me
i know that you got it babe
but i've got to stop it babe
before i cry i'll walk away
when you hurt me
it is so sweet but
i've never felt so lonely
and its all the same
when you go i stay
i've been here before
you've been here before.
