bleach

charly bliss

you're always right but it's better to lie

big as buildings and bleach-stained white

loud with you

i'm in love with your way

i always wanted my sister's face

plants and people wanna grow

they lean into the sun and press against my window in the way

sick with worry

plagued by fear

it took so long to say i know i wasn't happy there or here

spitting me out and i should say something nice?

i'm fucking joy and i hemorrhage light

he can destroy everything that i like

big as buildings and bleach-stained white

surrounded by the things i love and things i wanna buy and i'm reflecting faceless and unformed

sick with worry

plagued by fear

it took so long to say i know i wasn't happy there or here

columns of confetti colors bleed

kisses pressed into a screen

cried so much i couldn't see it right

sparks that bled into the seams

young enough for something beautiful

betrayed and dumb enough to be the first

crisis cashing out

surrounded by the things i love and things i wanna buy and i'm reflecting faceless and unformed

sick with worry

plagued by fear

it took so long to say i know i wasn't happy there or here

plants and people wanna grow

they lean into the sun and press against my window in the way

dust under the world explodes

now every day i thank the moon and stars that i was born a girl
