lyrics

I was 13 and terrified
My face was lit up by the numbers on the phone
Every night the radio was talking to me
And every night I would lose all my teeth

Seven years later
I lay on your floor
The sound you made
Was so familiar

And I have to admit
I was relieved
I needed that shit
To make sense of things

At night we’d shake and shake
We’d watch the walls mouths open grinning into cracks
And I would cry in the empty shells of shower stalls
Shoot me up with empathy
And watch me fall

Chorus

I swear to you, I have been touched
Instead of pills I swallow stars
I see the lines between your thoughts
And I hear the numbers in your words
Are silverbullets loaded in our silver guns
