Red Eye - Motherfolk

You took the red eye home

It was your quickest option

You were all alone

But that never bothered you

I kept the lights turned on

I swear this house is haunted

There’s something in the walls

And I’m all alone

Why did I come here?

Why are you with me?

Are you trying to kill me?

Did you miss me?

You only come 'round when I’m untethered

But you fit me well like an old sweater

I had to bite my tongue

It was my only option

My mouth filled up with blood

But you kept on talking

Cause I don’t open up, I just push it down

Might not work forever, but it works for now

What’s the point in even trying to let it out?

What’s the use in weighing both of us down?

But if it helps you

I can try better

We can both pretend we’ll live forever

Or can I tell you that you don’t remember

Everything we’ve done, we’ve done together

If I could get a word

I would tell you, my love

That I wish I could change who I am, who I was

And it goes without saying, but I’ll say it, I’m done

There’s still blood on my shirt from biting my tongue

If I could get a word

I would tell you, my love

That I wish I could change who I am, who I was

But it goes without saying, I’ll hate that I’m done

There’s still blood on my shirt from biting my tongue

There’s blood on my shirt from biting my tongue

There’s blood on my shirt from biting my tongue
