Lyrics:
I was in the other room
just laying on the carpet
sinking like a summer moon
slipping through a tar pit

you weren’t meant to see that
you weren’t meant to see that

of course there’s joy in the mundane
like hauling down the highway
but then I swerved into the other lane
and flipped over the barricades

you weren’t meant to see that
you weren’t meant to see that

I watched the windows shatter
as if it ever mattered
and for once in my life I see things for what they are
and not through the lens of profit and achievement
it’s nothing when you need it
one of those fortune cookie proclamations
that I could never swallow
you weren’t meant to see that
all the shit I should hold back
cuz it’s all in my head and I can see it through your swampy eyes
that I won’t always be the only one for you
