lyrics

she walked out of christmas dinner
her feet are cold, boots too torn for the winter
manic pixie nightmare
a family walks by and the parents stare
they tell their daughter to look away
her and the kid were raised the same way

when the depression passes, we'll still be indigestible to the masses
5' 8 disaster, youth and abandon is all that matters

we're alive, we're all we've got
i can spot you in a crowd, you don't even have to make a sound

my friends have stopped reaching out cause its only the past that comes out of my mouth
theres poison in her name but my heart still beats the same
she tore me apart to stay young, the sun came out when it was done
she held her knife up at me, her hands were shaking but i pretended not to see

the world always disappoints her but she never forgets to thank the bus driver

the crevices in her neck, i could explore until my eyes turn red
im gonna give it a rest, sometimes my heart deserves my best

we're alive, we're all we've got
i can spot you in a crowd, you don't even have to make a sound
i'm alive, you're all i've got
if there was ever any doubt, you're all i talk about
