I only go to this place
Because it's close to my house
I only go to this place
Because it's close to my house
And there's a chance you might be here
I thought I wanted be alone
But there's a chance you might be here
So I go to this place
I don't wanna go home
I don't wanna be alone
When there's a chance you might be here
I can't stand to be by myself
Oh no, I can't stand to be myself
Get me outta this place
There's a ghost in my house
And the chance you might be here
I can't get away from you
You know, the empress burnt me
And the emperor did, too
Growing up they never heard me
The generational blues
And now I'm just stuck here getting wasted on you
When I should probably be grateful
I get all wrapped up on this glass
Trying to numb this pain
I got this friend I call no one
All these saints are in my way
And then I sit back and I remember
That you don't love me anyway
I only go to this place
Because it's close to my house
I only go to this place
Because it's close to my house
And there's a chance you might be here

Cognitive Dissonance

I walk around tryna be intuitional
But cognitive dissonance leaves me suspicional
Feet on the ground but the feeling's conditional
That kiss was primal and I'm feeling frantic
I'm untraditional bleeding romantic
Caught in the cycle that borders on manic
And nobody cares
Nobody cares
No-oh body cares
Nobody cares
No no no-oh body cares
Boo-hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Boo-hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Boo-hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Nobody cares
No no no-oh body
I feel dramatic or
Could it be tragical?
Lost and sporadic but also organic
Cognitive dissonance leaves me suspicional
Cognitive dissonance leaves me suspicional

Body Work

When I walked in she said
Take off your shoes
Lie down
Focus on breathing
Relax and let your body take up space
Let me do this
You focus on breathing
But my body's not connected to my mind
And I'm just thinking while I'm breathing
My skin's not connected to my touch
I thought there would be more feeling
More feeling
She called me eager to help
Please let me do this
You just breathe
Rest your leg
I'll hold it myself
Be still and let me take the lead
But my body's not connected to my mind
And I'm still thinking while I'm breathing
My skin's not connected to my touch
I thought there would be more feeling
More feeling
My heart's not connected to my blood
My tooth's not connected to my lung
My neck's not connected to my right
My left's not connected to my sacrum
My throat's not connected to my gut
My lips aren't connected to my vocal chords
My skin's not connected to my touch
I thought there would be more feeling
More feeling
It's cliche she said but it's true
That the body is literally all connected
So be aware in the way you move
and relax your jaw when you feel your hips tense
But my body's not connected to my mind
And I'm still thinking while I'm breathing
My skin's not connected to my touch
I thought there would be more feeling
More feeling
But my body's not connected to my mind
My body's not connected to my mind
My body's not connected to my mind
My body's not connected to my mind

My neck's not connected to my right
My left's not connected to my pelvis
My throat's not connected to my gut
My lips aren't connected to my vocal chords
My skin's not connected to my touch
I thought there would be more feeling
More feeling
It's cliche she said but it's true
That the body is literally all connected

My body's not connected to my mind
My body's not connected to my mind
