Twitch

Everything bores me and everything hurts
Is this what it means to be human machine?
A cog in a wheel to an end?
'Cause they're not my heroes and I'm not a friend
Walking around with my head in the clouds
Forgetting a message I sent

I was kissing a stranger
I couldn't pretend
I was speaking the language
But I'm not trying
I was looking to you here
For something to say
And I was kissing a stranger
But I'm not trying

Walking in silence, you taught me a dance
While the woman inside by the counter just smiled
The smell of the day in her hair
Clementine quiet and holding my hand
I try to remember the way that I am
While you're whispering words in my ear

I was kissing a stranger
I couldn't pretend
I was speaking the language
But I'm not trying
I was looking to you here
For something to say
While I was kissing a stranger
I'm not trying

The tongue is loose, it found a friend
Intended use is left to bend
The fingers lock on warmer skin
They're tapping out a new rhythm
The eyelid twitch in mirrored lens
An afterthought, internal mend
Unruly vowel, forgotten rule
The tongue is loose, the tongue is loose

The tongue is loose, it found a friend
Intended use is left to bend
The fingers lock on warmer skin
They're tapping out a new rhythm
Unruly vowel, forgotten rule
The tongue is loose, the tongue is loose
The eyelid twitch in mirrored lens
An afterthought, internal mend
