Arlo Lyrics

I thought you wanted everything with me

You like Nirvana but only Unplugged see

There's got to be a caveat or three

Holding us down

Hey, it's me again tonight

I bet you hoped I wouldn't survive

As articulate as I had to be

To keep you the fuck away from me

You set me trapped up in a knot

Or two a thousand glued stuck

Shut up

And then you put it forth as if you thought it first

To commit asylum just to keep my ship afloat under you

Treat me like you don't know I know

The threat your silence breeds

Like weeds they choked base flourishment

In cages I've released

I need easements

Meant for me my peace moments

See, you see you only dimmed small parts of me

All my pillars crumbling

And I want them to

You had to know it's coming

I glanced it when you lost your tooth

I am not scared of vermin in the night no more

Just daylight warriors acting like they can shake my walls

I wanted more than this

I deserved more from you

At the very released my bruise

At the very released my bruise

At the very release my bruise

Goddamn you release my bruise

I want a repeat

I want a release

Release the self lies

They're all self-immolating

I refuse to mediate pain with you

I am through

Because you refuse ownership

Of what you know is true

Can't break through
