lyrics

I don’t think
Think about it
Every time I do I lose my mind
Gotta get lost so I can find you
Swimming in lies but that's not the truth

Let’s risk our lives for entertainment
Laugh and burn while light every pipeline
This is love for us useless little creatures

You’re a wretch like me
No use in forgetting something

You’re a wretch like me
So arrested by this
Lovely little useless feeling

You lean in
We dye our hearts so they match
You lean in
To seethe, to writhe, to be versed
In occupation
Hands on a book
Our rusting hooks
Why can’t this all be
Why can’t I be
Useless
