lyrics

Empty as Russian Nesting Dolls
Desperate as Annie Edson Taylor, tumbling over Niagara Falls
Dreaming of August in the middle of June
Wishing for the fall when everything's in bloom
And I, I've been orbiting a black moon
Not coming back any time soon

I've been circling. Yeah, I've been spinning around
Built a home in the lost and found
I've been waiting
Too torn apart to really say: “Are you okay?” … Yeah, I am fine

And it feels like I've been phoning it in
Swimming through the benzodiazepines
And I couldn't outrun what I've always been
Feels like I've been phoning this in
Maybe I just need a fresh start
Well if you crack my ribs, you could hold my heart

I've been circling. Yeah, I've been spinning around
Built a home in the lost and found
I've been waiting
Too torn apart to really say: “Are you okay?” … Oh, I am fine

I feel out of body
A copy of a copy
I am changing, I am changed
Torn apart and rearranged
Maybe I look the same
But I am changing, I am changed
I am changing, I am changed
I am changing, I am changed
Torn apart. Rearranged
Maybe I look the same
But, I am changing, I am changed
You ask if I'm okay
Too torn apart to really say
I am changing, I am changed
Maybe I look the same
Maybe I look the same
Maybe I look the same
Maybe I look the same
