What're You Gonna Do, Bleed On Me?

from Birds, Beasts, Trees, Flowers by A Cure for Love

lyrics

You must be so alone
I don't care
(I don’t care)
I know what it feels like
When you get empty
But it never happens to me
Sometimes the urge to do bad is so, so overwhelming

I look up I see the birds and they look so at home
(I've never had to put so much effort into opening a single door)
I look down I see my feet moving on their own
(If you don’t open up, remember my matches will burn it down)
I look in I see myself coming into my own
And all I wanted was, was to feel myself but I’m afraid of my own skin

When the ice melts
I'll be even more scared to go outside
You know (you know) I don't, I don’t like the ocean
I'm terrified of the dark
I can't imagine what will get closer as the sea rises

When I look up I see the birds and they look so at home
When I look down I see my feet moving on their own
I look in I see myself coming into my own
All I wanted was, was to be myself but I’m afraid what’ll happen

I don’t care (I don’t care), I know what it feels like when you get empty
Always (always) afraid of being a wash up
So I (I) stay out of the water

I look up I see the birds and they look so at home
(You should open up right now, I think these matches have a mind of their own)
I look down I see my feet moving on their own
(I never thought it’d take so long to burn this pile of oak and bones)
I look in I see myself coming into my own
All I wanted was, was to see myself but I’m afraid of what’s within

This is what you get for always layin’ in your warm and comfy bed
And this is how you feel when your thoughts are far too gone to ever be real
And this is how you love with your teeth clenched so tight around your tongue
And I'm scared, are you scared of me?
