lyrics

my tambourine
i'll shake it
headache aching
til my ears they bleed
& you can't see
my face in all the places that we'll never be
& that's fine with me

my tambourine
i'll shake it
fucking waking up the kids asleep
their ABCs & 123s
they had it easier than me
or so it seemed

first you have it then you lose it
relax it's just amusing to be like me
if they want it then they take it
if not for real they fake it so expertly
(oh my god)

my tambourine
i'll shake it
limbs a-breaking
got my mouth to feed
i don't want
i need
i stuff it while my stomach eats the rest of me
cuz my brain's hungry

there's snakes in your grandmother's basement
there's pictures to take in the hall
i fell
you didn't call
it was done after all

got a mind to do something that i don't normally do
i've got a mind to do something that i would not normally do
