lyrics

Underneath my skin
There’s a river flowing
There’s a river flowing
Just beneath the surface
Don’t know where it’s going
Don’t know where it’s going

Sometimes I’m surprised what I find lying on the bank
Whether it’s the song I wrote or the wine I drank

I dance up walls and hit the fan,
We can only carry what we can,
Just so that you know,
I’m not a show.
And I don’t have to look the way you look,
Or read from the same damn book,
Just so you know,
I’m not a show.

Ooooh.

Rationality melts away like, like, buutter on a hot day
And we all pretend, isn’t being naive a godsend.
And we just keep beating our wings,
Painting glitter all over our wings,
We are better than this, better than this.

CHORUS

There’s a constant hum and it’s getting louder
All the pretty birds calling out for power
Flashing colour like it’s all that matters
Staring down mirrors until their brain shatters.
Like it’s all that matters.
