​surface Lyrics by ​slenderbodies

the sugar machine (deluxe)

2024

[Verse 1]
Red light, slow down
Don't even try to post up
I feel like hiding monsters
See them change in my sleep
File away for those days
Sudden shapes in focus
Tele-scape in forays
I'll be there for days
I'll even call and say hello
And that I couldn't come over
Honestly, I would

[Chorus]
But I'm picking up overtones
Uneasy and overgrown
I'm ripping through clothes too worn out
Must be half my age, I'm sure now
I'm keeping it vague on purpose
I'm getting too old and nervous
Let's talk about something else
Anything to keep it surface (Oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Set firе, light up
And I'm here, dumbstruck
Can't celеbrate without one
See the change in both ways
A better way to rotate
Lay awake in your bed
Can't escape what you say
Better days are coming back to you

[Chorus]
I'm picking up overtones
Uneasy and overgrown
I'm ripping through clothes too worn out
Must be half my age, I'm sure now
I'm keeping it vague on purpose
I'm getting too old and nervous
Let's talk about something else
Anything to keep it surface (Oh yeah)

[Bridge]
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

[Chorus]
I'm picking up overtones
Uneasy and overgrown
I'm ripping through clothes too worn out
Must be half my age, I'm sure now
I'm keeping it vague on purpose
I'm getting too old and nervous
Let's talk about something else
Anything to keep it surface (Oh yeah)
