Beetles Lyrics by Heather Evans

Possessions

2020

[Verse 1]
The man on the porch wore out my words for me
Not to say I didn't try
But now the man upstairs thinks he's got every reason why
My mom wants their numbers, she thinks I'm gonna die
S'pose I might
Probably not tonight, but she could be right

[Chorus]
I'm drinking from a faucet where I don't trust the pipes
Tried to clean my teeth, but the brush grew legs and a thousand eyes
Already swallowed one of them today
Had to spit out the pill I was trying to take

[Post-Chorus]
They're hiding
In all of our open bottles
And under the door handles

[Verse 2]
We must look strange in the morning
With all those new dents
And different chunks of us missing
We must sound strange in the morning
With last night in our mouths
And all of our tongues stuck to the ceiling

[Chorus]
All of our throats have been replaced
With pieces of paper, and that's okay
'Cause we don't feel much like singing anyway
Having coated our lungs and shrink-wrapping our brains

[Post-Chorus]
And breathing
'Cause whatever the furnace is burning
The vents are bringing

[Outro]
Trying to make myself move
But the draft has got a grip, and so I'm adding to the bin
Someday I might just fit inside of it
All I plan to do
Is watch my knuckles turn blue
