girlpool - faultline lyrics
[verse 1]
every day it’s friday night
i hold my body like a butcher knife
smiling for the camera eyes closed
doing anything you ask, i suppose
you tell me you would die to breathe me in
i know there’s no excuse for oxygen
so i will make your bed my graveyard
let the world run through my soft parts
[chorus]
and i live at this faultline
between the edge of solitude and hope
i’m shaking in a sentimental trope
and though the stars apologize for night
i don’t blame them, i’ve wanted to sometimes
i don’t know what to tell you where i’ve been
my body is just a landscape for your sin
and all the days regret the city lights
i know it’s just the fault of the faultline
[verse 2]
every week keeps slipping by
in this imitation paradise
the angels make me sorry when i err
from the way they want me everywhere
can’t you see i’m sinking further in
wish you could reimburse my oxygen
i gave you everything and then some more
left you with nothing to be looking for
[chorus]
will i die at this faultline?
between the edge of entropy and woe
i wanted everything so much it grows
until i can’t manage this appetite
i loved you so traumatically that i
can barely lift the world you left for me
there’s lots of ghosts i somehow still can see
holding on to me for our dear life
all these bodies always touching mine
