spektral quartet & julia holter - fishmouth lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when you walked in the door
they were waiting
they confronted you with the evidence
you’d been practicing in the mirror

[verse 2]
they caught you off guard
you weren’t ready
if they’d waited another day, you would’ve been fine
but when you attempted to speak
[chorus]
whole fish
flopping from your mouth
wriggling on the floor
gasping for air

[post+chorus]
ocean water everywhere
staining the carpet and running out the door

[interlude]
“so that’s your big secret?
you’ve been swallowing live fish?”
you werеn’t listening
you were trying to gеt the taste from your mouth

[bridge]
all over the city
you’d noticed people spitting on the sidewalks
you’d always just thought of them as rude
but now you wondered
did they try to explain a disconcerting situation too soon
and end up with the ocean in their mouths?

[verse 3]
you could still taste the salt
two weeks later
you could still feel the friction of the scales in your throat
and your t++th were slowly dissolving
[verse 4]
all the dentists you saw
shrugged their shoulders
they couldn’t figure out what was happening
so, bit by bit, you retreated from your daily life

[outro]
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
