hollow and a wooden spoon
hollow and a wooden spoon
that tells me i may wait forever
and it’s spreading
no i know that it’s spreading

i can’t wait to hold you in my arms
i cannot wait another day
i can’t wait to hold you in my arms
i cannot wait, i cannot wait

pooling pitch, pooling rust
bring me down, fuck it up again
corrosive, break my trust
bring me down, fuck it right back up again

sloughing a fruitful bloom
sorry in a fruitful tomb
that tells me i may wait forever
my eyes search for your eyes
will i ever
gaze in a haze where time flies / stands still

i can’t wait to keep you safe from harm
tho i know i’m not perfect
i can’t wait to hold you in my arms
tho i know i’m not perfect
no one’s perfect but i feel
that i failed you before i even got a look at you

i can’t wait to hold you in my arms
i cannot wait another day
i can’t wait to hold you in my arms
don’t make me wait

pooling pitch, pooling rust
bring me down, fuck it up again
this disease, this disgust
bring me down, fuck it right back up again
tender head, tender heart
tear it out, curl it up again
pooling pitch, pooling rust
bring me down, fuck it right back up again

how can i look after you when i can’t myself
how can i be there for you when i’m not all there at all
how can i provide for you
when the roof over my head is rotting
the fruit inside my fridge is rotting
the thoughts inside my head is rotting
the flesh beneath my skin in rotting
rotting
