Default Lyrics by Ben Kessler

Violet

2022

[Verse 1]
There's static on my TV
I feel it feels the friction from the couch
It's like your thoughts are in my bloodstream
Deleting words before they even leave my mouth
There's things I'd never tell you
I hate the way that you pick up the phone, mm-hmm
And all your fears you never worked through
It must mean something that I'm different alone

[Pre-Chorus]
There's versions of me fighting layers of you
Let you pick at the seams, I'd rеwrite myself for you

[Chorus]
Factory resеt
If I change all of my default settings
Would I be someone you need then?
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending
Forget all of your feelings
If I let you see straight through my skin
Factory reset
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending

[Verse 2]
I could string the words together
I could say 'em just the way you wanna hear
But I'm stumbling through the letters
I glitch when I feel tethered
Will you still be standing here when

[Chorus]
I factory reset
If I change all of my default settings
Would I be someone you need then?
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending
Forget all of your feelings
If I let you see straight through my skin
Factory reset
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending

[Bridge]
Just rip all of my wires out
See how long it takes 'til I shut down
Twist me 'til the truth falls out
Don't call me when you're guilty now
Just rip all of my wires out
See how long it takes 'til I shut down
Twist me 'til the truth falls out
Don't call me when you're guilty now

[Chorus]
Factory reset
If I change all of my default settings
Would I be someone you need then? (Be someone you need then)
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending
Forget all of your feelings
If I let you see straight through my skin
Factory reset
Want you to want me when I'm not pretending
