Say Anything - Sediment Lyrics

The smell of your body
Is making me heed and gag
I thought you were candy
Just like in nature my good man

So now you can't leave me
Just like the rest of them did
As we sink into the East Bay Brooklyn dirge
Thank God I'm done with this

Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment

So go ask your Chomsky
What these systems produce
The cracks in commandments
That we can slip through

You develop a callous
When you're being lied to
But now my pain is all just gravy
As you drown beneath the waves with me
And sing

Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment

Sediment!

I wake up with a humming glow of a hundred Percocets
I have the arms of a baby
Veins of an old lady
My vision is runny and profound
There's a still light we sit behind
You turn to me and ask if I'd like you to stay
But I didn't have anything here
I say "I should have dissolved in you
But I made us statistics
They can write us off
But I don't fucking deserve you"
You look confused
But after a very awkward pause
You kiss my cheek and then walk off
Left alone now I start to age backwards
And I'm viciously hungering for someone
To love me the way my parents never did
There must be someone who can somewhere
Maybe I'll take a walk and see
After all it's so big
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on
