The Damn Thing Is Cursed

from Hinges by Pretty Bitter

lyrics

If I grew two faces, how could I still be sure
they were the ones you were always looking for?
You never got it right, don’t you ever wonder?
You don’t bite the hand, you cut it off at the root.

It must make you tired that no one knows you.
They’ll always get you wrong, you come to get me.
They’ll always be in the wrong, you come to get me.
They aren’t coming after all, you beg for something.

I wanna leave the door wide open but I know–
I don’t care what you said to your friends
when I wasn’t around.
The weirdest shit comes out at night but you go out.
I hope you learn for yourself who you are
when nobody’s around.

The mirror’s acting off, shows double your teeth;
and your fingers can’t touch anything that they reach.
You’re growing out all wrong, it’s more than you need.
Nothing’s satisfactory. You take and you leave.

It must make you tired to be so hungry.
You eat the good in people, wonder where they
could have gone wrong.

I wanna leave the door wide open but I know–
I don’t care what you said to your friends
when I wasn’t around.
The weirdest shit comes out at night but you go out.
I hope you learn for yourself who you are
when nobody’s around.
