lyrics

just de-bloc'd in an alley and picked up my phone
my hair smells like tear gas and I'm heading home
do you wanna come over? I'm sure that your night's been rough too
the dreams have been bad and I prob'bly need help
I'd honestly rather not sleep by myself
and it's been a while but I always felt better with you

if I need to stay grounded when things get real bad
I think of the way your hair feels in my hands
your rough binder fabric scraping my back
I could use a reminder of that

I know things haven't been great between us lately
but I'm still holding out hope
and I know it isn't super healthy
but do you wanna help me cope?
do you wanna help me cope?

sorry it's messy, don't mind the clothes
or the bottles for pills that got flushed weeks ago
l guess you know better than most, we all do what we can
if you want you can tell me what you're tryna forget
but look, if you wanna just get to the bit
where we're tearing into each other, I understand

we both wanna hurt and we wanna feel safe
we're scrambling for some familiar place
cause there's some kinds of normal we'll never get back
and I don't wanna think about that

I know things haven't been great between us lately
but I'm still holding out hope
and I know it isn't super healthy
but do you wanna help me cope?
do you wanna help me cope?

I can hear sirens I'm not sure are there
and whether they are I'm too shaky to care
maybe just hold me til they go away
and tell me that I'll be ok

I know things haven't been great between us lately
but I'm still holding out hope
and I know it isn't super healthy
but do you wanna help me cope?
do you wanna help me cope?
