Newman Lyrics by Selfish Things

2022

I took the apple from the tree
I think that snakes can speak to me
Turn me to salt in desert seas
You bitter king

I said I lived inside your nightmares
I've ruined all hope for fun
I've lost myself in silence
Chasing dreams, and going numb

I want to rid my brain of vices
I want to live and realize
That every time I choose to run
A piece of myself dies

Nailed
I'm hanging on your wall to dry
Collecting all the dust of life
And hiding from their hateful eyes

Shame
My heart is my own hell to fix
My pressure is what I can't shake
Gone in madness

Insidious and slithering
Doubt shapes many forms
From confident, to elegant
To broken, old, and worn

I'm grounded in my anger
I feel you like the sun
The bridges that I've burned
I only torched to watch you run

Nailed
I'm hanging on your wall to dry
Collecting all the dust of life
And hiding from their hateful eyes

Shame
My heart is my own hell to fix
My pressure is what I can't shake
Gone in madness

Gone in madness

Nailed
I'm hanging on your wall to dry
Collecting all the dust of life
And hiding from their hateful eyes

Hiding from their hateful eyes
I'm hiding from their hateful eyes
