the word love tastes like earwax Lyrics by ​phoenix axel

How It Feels To Get Better

2024

In my dreams I was a damsel
But it doesn’t matter anymore
In every unspoken word I write
I fight the urge to idolise
On top of this
You’d think this is pathetic
And I don't understand it either
But does your boyfriend know
The same way my therapist does?
Does your boyfriend know (Does he know?)
The same things my brother does?
I'm making excuses
To convince myself that you don't care
And I think I'll pick up smoking
Just to have the excuse to call you
See if you pick up
If you saw my name
Ruin a friendship and a reputation
For a confession, a one sided, self righteous, self indulgent
Fornication
On top of this
You’d think this is pathetic
And I don't blame you (Does your boyfriend)
But does your boyfriend know (Does he know?)
The same things my mother does?
Does your boyfriend know
The way that we talk together?
Downright pathetic
The way that I left it
I'm holding myself back
This heart
Another relapse
On top of this
You’d think this is pathetic
And I don't understand it either
But does your boyfriend know?
(Does your boyfriend know?)
Does your boyfriend know
That I really hope she does?
(I hope she does!)
