Self destruction, the neverending war between body and brain and more sex and drinking.

lyrics

Split me in half, gather up my blood, pour into a mould in the shape of
someone that could make you happy, and let it freeze.
I could never let anyone convince me I was pretty,
all I could do was try to convince myself I didn’t care,
But I really am that shallow, there’s hardly anything under there.

It’s body against brain, brain against body, body against brain again.
It’s brain vs. body vs. body vs. brain vs. brain vs. body again
(It’s the fight to keep myself in one piece, it’s the fight to keep me, me)

Build a safety net from night’s spent soaking wet,
swimming in whiskey standing in the rain,
Waiting for smoking friends to want to dance again.

I’m so easily distracted by anything shiny and bright
I’m such a coward by day, overconfident by night
My dig dumb drunken heart wants to die between your thighs.

Last summer I lost six hours to the streets of Nottingham
I lost six hours I’ll never see again.
Brought myself to the edge of sense and pushed myself off,
Found the point where I didn’t want a “me” anymore
Everyone else found a bed, I found myself on the floor saying:
“Miles, yr hellbent on headlights and skylines, yr becoming a liability,
Miles, you may not be an asshole, but you’re an idiot
And yr becoming a liability”

(You’ve done worse things, but not much worse)

Some nights all we get is hate and that’s just fine, I used to be fortified, by puritan body weaponised against drunks and dolts, now I’m as drunk as they come, I’m throwing insults at all my favourite people in the world, you are the oxygen supply on my airsuit and I am a mess, we are headed for another lazy shipwreck. Maybe if I spread myself extra thin there’ll be enough to leave some of me with everyone I’ve ever sinned against but I have already left so much dead skin in their beds.

Some nights we don’t need romance,
We just need to hold hands
We may die single but we won’t die alone
Somebody shut me up, fuck me and take me home.
