P. et al. - Oregon Farewells

Old and creaky stairwells
Fall and Oregon farewells
Everything I leave behind Everything that used to be mine
My thoughts are pouring out of my skull I know you're miserable
But I'll lie with my whole heart Even though I'm falling apart
Duct tape me together And I'm tethered
Together to myself with a string But I feel the damage has already been dealt
I know you felt the moment my world shattered The way you lied to me
Telling me that I mattered You lied with your whole chest
You lied with your whole heart And I'm glad that you did
And I'm sorry I fell apart In your arms
After dark, paper stars and scars on my arms No need for alarm
Creaky steps catch your breath Fallen leaves
I grieve from Oregon in the morning And I'm mourning
Everything I left behind That is no longer mine
I'm a ghost of who I used to be Back when I was three
And I'm falling apart And I want to be put back together
These broken seams but best I could do was some duct tape and super glue
And when I try my best I still fall short of the mark
And who would have guessed I'm staying up way
Past when it got dark Overthinking, slowly sinking back
Into my old ways The days when I wouldn't eat
For weeks and wouldn't sleep Time repeats, I'm in too deep the old
Me begins to seep back through my skin And you know my guard's paper thin
Old and creaky stairwells Fall and Oregon farewells
Everything I left behind Everything that is no longer mine
My thoughts are pouring out of my skull I know you're miserable
But I'll lie with my whole heart Even though I'm falling apart
Duct tape me together And I'm tethered together to myself
With a string But I fear the damage has already been dealt
(Fuck yeah)
(That slayed rat)
(That slayed rat?)
(Sewer rats)
