The Metaphorical Horizon
lyrics
That girl of yours, that you go and tell your friends about
Likes the dirt on your face as if it's all she'll ever have
But when the iceberg is the warmest island in sight
She said, "might as well build a fire"
A girl who hides in her room
A look in a mirror, fraying more, morning to night
The flickering gash of hope on her arm
Not to be treacherous but to hate and bury
Deeper than the notion of a new jovial dawn
The sanguine grin of a disingenuously kind individual
Like an escharotic plant
She Alt+Tabs as often as one can
The metaphorical horizon scares her as much it does me
You're a dumb teen only once in your lifetime
So it's fine to try stupid things once or twice
An innocent life in ignorance is the best
Knocking on door to door has never felt this good
A solitudinarian's dream, "that's where I wanna live"
It's never as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4
Something you couldn't condense into song
She Alt+Tabs as often as one can
But what can you do, what could anyone do
When the metaphorical horizon is approaching
At a rapid pace and it scares me half to death
Scares me half to death but you could always keep running
Scares me half to death but you could always keep running
She is looking for something new but what can you do
What could anyone do when the metaphorical horizon
isn't in the distance but right in front of us
Likes the dirt on your face as if it's all she'll ever have
But when the iceberg is the warmest island in sight
She said, "might as well build a fire"
A girl who hides in her room
A look in a mirror, fraying more, morning to night
The flickering gash of hope on her arm
Not to be treacherous but to hate and bury
Deeper than the notion of a new jovial dawn
The sanguine grin of a disingenuously kind individual
Like an escharotic plant
She Alt+Tabs as often as one can
The metaphorical horizon scares her as much it does me
You're a dumb teen only once in your lifetime
So it's fine to try stupid things once or twice
An innocent life in ignorance is the best
Knocking on door to door has never felt this good
A solitudinarian's dream, "that's where I wanna live"
It's never as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4
Something you couldn't condense into song
She Alt+Tabs as often as one can
But what can you do, what could anyone do
When the metaphorical horizon is approaching
At a rapid pace and it scares me half to death
Scares me half to death but you could always keep running
Scares me half to death but you could always keep running
She is looking for something new but what can you do
What could anyone do when the metaphorical horizon
isn't in the distance but right in front of us
