On the Floor - Initial Talk Remix Lyrics by Perfume Genius, Initial Talk

IMMEDIATELY Remixes

2020

[Intro]
I-I-I
I-I-I
[Verse 1]
I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes
The dreaming, bringing his face to mine
(Lock the door)
The constant buzzing all through the night
The fighting rips me all up inside
(On the floor)
I pace, I run my mouth
I pray and wait
I cross out his name on the page
[Chorus]
(How long 'til), this washes away?
(How long 'til), my body is safe?
(How long 'til), I walk in the light?
(How long 'til), this heart isn't mine?
[Verse 2]
The rise and fall of his chest on me
I'm trying, but still, it's all I see
The violent current of energy
I hide it away and underneath
(Lock the door)
I shake
I promise every day to change
I cross out his name on the page
[Chorus]
(How long 'til), this washes away?
(How long 'til), my body is safe?
(How long 'til), I walk in the light?
(How long 'til), this heart isn't mine?
[Bridge]
Take this wildness away, ah
And away, ah
And away, ah
[Verse 3]
I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes
The dreaming, bringing his face to mine
(Out the door)
I pace, I run my mouth
I pray to change
I cross out his name on the page
[Chorus]
(How long 'til), this washes away?
(How long 'til), my body is safe?
(How long 'til), this heart isn't mine?
[Outro]
I-I-I-I just want him in my arms, hey
I-I-I
I-I-I
